They have a thick skin that is easy to peel, are seedless, and have a meaty\u00a0and sweet flesh that makes them a perfect snack. Navels are also great for juicing and cooking.\r\n\r\n<strong>Hayward Kiwi<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Chiechi Farm, Live Oak, CA<\/em>\r\n\r\nOriginally known as the Chinese gooseberry due to its Chinese origins.\u00a0Hawyward Wright, a New Zealand nurseryman propagated his plants by\u00a0grafting, and they eventually became the preferred cultivar of growers due to\u00a0their sweet flavor and thin skin.\r\n\r\n<strong>Satsuma Mandarins<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Side Hill Citrus, Lncoln, CA<\/em>\r\n\r\nSatsumas are typically seedless with a thin skin that is loosely attached to the\u00a0flesh making them very easy to peel. The flesh of the mandarin is very sweet\u00a0and delicate leaving them susceptible to bruising, so handle with care. Do not\u00a0place other fruits on top of the mandarins.\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIS WEEK&#8217;S FRUIT Fuji Apples Cuyama, New Cuyama, CA Fujis are a cross between Red Delicious and Ralls Janet, an heirloom apple\u00a0dating back to Thomas Jefferson.
