Our sister farm handles the fruit.  Jamie orders fruit from the Boise area weekly.  She also gets gorgeous berries from Oregon weekly.  Let us know what your fruit needs are and we will let Jamie know.  Right now there are peaches, nectarines and pluots available.  Canning peaches are only a week away!  Pears and apples start near the end of August.
