THIS WEEK’S FRUIT

Flavorcrest Peaches Frog Hollow Farm, Brentwood, CA It’s a well-known peach whose attractiveness and bold sweetness makes it the third most widely planted fresh-market peach in California. Flavor Crests at Frog Hollow enjoy more time on the branch to fully develop their distinctive sweetness. Golden Sweet Apricots Frog Hollow Farm, Brentwood, CA A smaller apricot that makes up for whatever it lacks in size with its rich flavor. Though we may bake pastries featuring other varieties, the Golden Sweet is our variety of choice for our best-selling apricot conserve. A California born and bred variety, it has a brilliant golden orange skin with a soft blush. Santa Rose Plums Frog Hollow Farm, Brentwood , CA Red-skinned with a purple bloom, its amber flesh gets flushed with red. It’s plump perfection with tender flesh that’s ex- tremely sweet and juicy. A bit of tartness in the skin balances out the sweetness.
