Bright yellow with hardly no blush to speak of, the Summerset is a freestone that boasts a bold flesh that has a strong peach flavor. Sweet\u00a0and juicy but with a tart, acidic bite, it makes for a nice contrast as a follow-up to the extremely sweet Cal Red. The Summerset has a nicely firm texture that\u00a0freezes well and is a favorite of ours to bake with.\r\n\r\n<strong>August Fire Nectarine<\/strong>\r\n\r\nElegantly shaped and rich in flavor, with deep red skin and warm orange flesh.\r\n\r\n<strong>Red Seedless Grapes<\/strong>\r\n\r\nFirm, large, and sweet the Flame Seedless are one of the most popular varieties in North America. Enjoy these out of hand or try them in green salads,\u00a0chicken salads, or fruit salads. Grapes can be enjoyed from the counter within\u00a0a few days of receiving your box or refrigerated to enjoy them further into the\u00a0week.\r\n\r\n<strong>Emerald Beaut<\/strong>\r\n\r\nA freestone plum, the Emerald Beaut is a delicate green that turns golden with\u00a0a hint of a blush. It has a firmer texture than the Santa Rosa with a crisp almost crunchy mouthfeel. One of our most hardy fruit, the Emerald Beaut just\u00a0gets sweeter and sweeter without losing texture as it ages.\r\n\r\n<strong>Hosui Asian Pear<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe Hosui is popular in both Japan and in California. They have a rougher,\u00a0thicker skin than the Shinseiki with flesh that while still crunchy has a more\u00a0melting mouthful, making the texture combination when eaten out of hand\u00a0spectacular. Very juicy and sweet with a milder pear taste, their round shape\u00a0and beautiful golden hue make them ideal for presentation with a distinctively\u00a0Autumnal feel.\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THIS WEEK&#8217;S FRUIT Summerset Peach The Summerset matures into a very large peach, some weighing in at more\u00a0than two pounds!
