Starting new markets this week

It's that time of year again. I walk the orchards and am amazed every day by the growth of the fruit. It seems like just yesterday that I was out in the bloom with the family taking pictures. Here it is just a few weeks later and the fruit is growing and we are starting to plan our first picking. The cherries will once again be the first fruit of the season but there is a nectarine that is right behind it. After a long winter of oranges and dried fruit we are all anticipating that first sweet nectarine that will kick off the wonderful summer.

This week we are adding Bass lake to our list of markets. We are still going to Merced on Saturday mornings and last week was the first week of Merced's market at the promenade.

Hope to see you soon!
