Nectarines: - Fantasia - vivid orange-red fruits with juicy yellow flesh that tastes rich and sweet and a 'free' stone
Peaches: Please note that these late season peaches are great for canning and stay firm, even when ripe! - Cresthaven - A sweet, juicy, medium to large freestone peach that is almost fuzzless. Its bright red skin touched with gold is striking. A non-browning, late-season variety, it is favoured for canning and freezing.
Pears: Should be stored in the fridge! - Bartlett - Light-green to completely yellow in colour. These are the juiciest pears for fresh eating. You can cook them to make pear sauce or pear butter.
- Bosc - Great for poaching! A high quality, flavourful, dessert winter pear with excellent keeping quality.
- D'Anjou - This pear has a pale green skin that doesn't change colour as the pear ripens.
- Flemish Beauty - Similar to Bartlett, these large, roundish pears are Reddish blushed on a clear yellow skin. Sweet and aromatic with a musky flavor. Good for eating and drying.
Plums: Once they are ripe, keep them in the fridge or freeze! - NY 9 (Blue) - Green flesh and purple skin (covered with waxy bloom). It has a mild taste and is rather sweet. Great for processing. When the flesh starts changing from green to amber, it is good to eat also.
- Italian (Prune) - Super tasty and great for drying, canning, baking and eating
- German (Prune) - Smaller but sweeter than Italian Prunes!
| | | A note about our fruit from Niagara All our Niagara fruit is Tree Run, which means that the fruit is not sent to the grading station. The fruit is picked riper (and tastier) and avoids fungicidal baths and defuzzing in the case of peaches. You will find smaller and larger fruit together in your box. Enjoy the ripest fruit first! Apricots, Peaches and Nectarines - Enjoy the ripest fruit first and for the rest, spread your fruit out at room temperature on newspaper on their side or bottom (not stem down) and not touching each other and they'll ripen over the next few days. Keep peaches and apricots out of the fridge until they are ripe as they can get a mealy texture when chilled. Grapes and Pears - Best kept in the fridge | | |
