At this time of the year, there is always a few quality issues due to the heat. Snow peas have been very scarce, and the quality of baby spinach hasn’t been as good as expected due to some very hot conditions in the growing regions about three weeks ago.
Also at this time of the year, apples are in a change over between the new season varieties (royal gala), and the old season varieties such as the pink ladys and granny smith. I’m not a great fan of new season royal galas, but they are probably the best option, as the pink ladys are starting to look “very tired”.
Thomson seedless grapes will be starting either this week, or next. Until then, we’ll stick with the red seedless which seems to be quite sweet and crunchy.
Plums are back on, nectarines and peaches (yellow and clingstone) are still a good option.
As for avocados, let’s hope there is a drop in price pretty soon.
Have a great week!
