Due to the cooler weather we still have Harrow Diamond Peaches for Tuesday. The Harrow Diamond is a smaller peach that comes away from the stone quite easily (although it is not classified as a free stone). They are delicious! Garnet Beauty Peaches will be next!
One of the things you'll notice about Tree Run Peaches is that they are not all ripe when you get them. Eat the ripe ones right away (yum!) and for the rest, spread them out on newspaper on their side or bottom (not stem down) and not touching each other and they'll ripen over the next few days. Peaches and apricots should stay out of the fridge until ripe (they can get a mealy texture when chilled). When my table is covered in fruit I keep a fan blowing over them to discourage fruit flies from landing.
Garden Party Organic Grab Bags are now available Tuesdays at Entertaining Elements!!!
There are three options for you to choose:
- Juicer Mix - a mix of juicing veg such as: kales, beets, carrots, mints and parsley
from Garden Party (organic) - Mixed Vegetables - a surprise mix of 7-9 fresh organic vegetables equivalent to a half CSA share of Garden Party's Produce.
- Vegetable Stock Kit - makes 3-4 litres of stock - instructions included (bag)
Order until Monday at 4pm and stop by for fresh produce at Entertaining Elements in downtown Kitchener from noon to 6pm. You can stop a car momentarily in from of the store as it is a loading zone.
Enjoy all this amazing fruit!
