Many Peaches Ripe Now

    We harvested many 'Souveneirs' peaches yesterday and this morning, and now have 170 pounds for sale during our Summer Open Hours.  All our peach varieties are yellow freestone peaches, and more peaches will keep ripening until about Aug. 20.  We harvest all the ripe peaches each day, and mainly sell them in 10-pound boxes.  Harvested peaches sell for $1.58 per pound + sales tax for #1 fruit with no damage.  We usually pick some nice #2 fruit that sells for $1.28 per pound + sales tax, and sells out quickly.  

'Souveneirs' peach, a newer variety developed at the University of Arkansas, has very sweet, firm fruit. As of this evening, we have 17 boxes like this one, weighed to 10 pounds, for sale.

   We also still have many cracked pecans for sale now.  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 $19.70 + sales tax.

   Updated projected sales dates for all our crops are shown in the sidebar at left under Crop Sales Seasons.  That also tells which crops we sell harvested, and which crops we sell pick-your-own.

   As always, we take cash or checks for payment, but NO credit cards or debit cards, and no "apps".  We don't use a smart phone, and have no phone line to the sales building.  So please bring your checkbook or enough cash to cover the amount of produce you want to buy.  Thanks.
