Today I received the bad-but-not-unexpected news that later peaches are in too short supply to be available to us. Given early frost problems (that affected both pears and peaches – I don’t know for sure about apples but expect so) and the hurricane, the late peach crop is coming in at about the volume predicted back in early July when I first contacted the orchard.
So we won’t have later peaches this year.
And I have decided not to get pears, either: the trip does not make financial sense.
I really hate to disappoint you. But . . . I sure do appreciate your support!
Keep an eye on this website as spring gets closer to see if we will again be growing vegetable seedlings, flowering and scented geraniums, heirloom perennials and succulents. I’ll announce our plans as soon as I can get them clearly in mind.
And please watch also for an announcement about 2021 peaches. By mid-July we should be able to have a moderately good sense for how the crop looks next season. I will post an early, preliminary announcement and follow up with an email as plans clarify. Feel free to contact me, too.
And, in addition, please continue to tell your friends about what we do here. This year several folks were referred to us and are happy with our work. We appreciate the referrals, your own support, and your help.
My best wishes for a safe and healthy winter season.
