Happy New Year 2023! It is cold and rainy outside and its the time of year to keep ourselves extra healthy. The citrus season is picking up and Satsumas are in peak flavor with incredible healthy benefits.

Crisp, juicy, sweet-tart. The Cosmic Crisp is a large, juicy apple with a remarkably firm and crisp texture. We think it snaps when you bit into it! The Cosmic Crisp is a rich red that almost sparkles with starburst like lenticels. Eat fresh out of hand and holds up well when baked or cooked.

Arkansas Black apples taste better after being in storage for a bit.  Patient eaters are rewarded with a sweet, firm fruit that offers notes of cherry, cinnamon, vanilla, and coriander. Mountain grown by Cuyama Orchards, a small family farm in Ventura County, California.

Limequats are a cross between a key lime and kumquat. They have a sweet tasting skin and bitter-sweet pulp with a flavor similar to limes. Roll the limequat between your palms to get the juices flowing and release the essential oils. Eat them whole (yes, the seeds too) like a kumquat or use the skins to flavor deserts and drinks.

Passion Fruit are ripe and ready to eat when they start to wrinkle. Cut in half, scoop out and eat the pulp and seeds! Pairs well with smooth and buttery California Keitt mangos.

California mango season starts with the Esquire Mango. With a subtly sweet flavor, the Esquire is the first variety coming out of the short season in California's Salton Sea area!

Nam Doc Mai (translates to sweet nectar of the blossom) is a Thai Cultivar and Thailand’s best known dessert mango. One of the world’s most coveted mangos and the mango best used in Thailand’s Famous Dish-Mango with Sticky Rice.

Super sweet Mallika Indian Mangos have silky and creamy fiberless sweet flesh. Pale green skin turns bright yellow with light pinkish and yellow blush tones.

Black Mission Figs are the most common variety with deep purple to black skin, watermelon to pink colored flesh and good flavor. They are delicious eaten fresh or dried.
