THIS WEEK’S FRUIT

Kettleman Apricots Frog Hollow Farm, Brentwood, CA Named after the California town near where this apricot variety was bred and tested, the Kettleman has a hint of tartness that apricot fans love along with a beautiful aro- ma. It is smooth-textured and delightfully sweet. Rainier Cherries Frog Hollow Farm, Brentwood, CA The Rainier is the only white cherry we grow. Created in 1952 at Washington State University, they are a cross between the Bing and Van. Plump, delicious, and with ex- tremely sweet creamy flesh, they can be more fragile than the dark cherries. Albion Strawberries JW Farms, Watsonville, CA The Albion is a newer variety strawberry developed at UC Davis. Strawberries are early this year! The sweet flavor and firm flesh makes the Albion an excellent dessert or preserving berry. Hass Avocados Sundance Farm, Oceanside, CA Creamy in texture, nutty in flavor, with a small to me- dium seed. The Hass skin is easy to peel and darkens from green to purplish-black as it ripens
