We still have a good supply of both 'Kanza' pecans and selections from Bill's pecan breeding program for sale. All these pecans have large nuts, thin shells and great taste, and I give taste samples.
Pecans store well for 3-4 months in a fridge, and for over 6 years in a freezer. We sell cracked pecans in 4-pound bags, which are over 75% pecan kernels and under 25% shell fragments. Each bag has the equivalent of 6 pounds of in-shell pecans, and when you pick out the kernels, you get 3 pounds or more of nutmeats. Each bag costs $19.32 + sales tax.
We have selections from Bill's pecan breeding program (bags on left) & 'Kanza' pecans (bags on right) for sale. The plastic boxes show what the cracked pecans look like inside the paper bags. |
We now have over 200 pounds of harvested #1 'Gold Rush' apples, and over 200 pounds of harvested #2 'Gold Rush' apples, packed and ready for sale in our cooler. #1 'Gold Rush' apples keep in top condition for fresh eating for 10 to 11 months in a fridge when stored in the plastic bags I packed them in. This apple variety gets sweeter after a month or two in cold storage, as starches convert into sugars. #2 'Gold Rush' apples keep for 3 to 4 months in a fridge.
'Gold Rush' apples turn bright yellow when ready to eat. We'll have harvested 'Gold Rush' apples for sale until about May 2025. |
Harvested apples sell for $1.45 per pound + sales tax for #1 fruit with no
damage. A 20-pound box of #1 fruit costs $28.02 + sales tax, and you
save $1.00. We have some very nice #2 fruit that sell for $1.16 per pound + sales
tax. We also have small amounts of harvested #2 'Enterprise'
apples, and mainly #2 selections from my apple breeding program for sale.
More rain is predicted for tomorrow, Nov. 18, so I'll be in our
