    Flavorosa Pluots are the
    Fruit of the Month for
    June! Rich, dark skin yields
    to the most eye-popping
    bright rose-colored interior
    for this beautful piece of
    fruit. Dont let June pass you
    by without ordering
    Flavorosas!
    Limes: The crisis is
    ofcially over on limes and

    are on the tght side as
    producton winds down in
    Mexico. Georgia is expected
    to start shipping next week

    quanttes.
    Blueberries: We now have
    full pints from Georgia and we
    will be transitoning to North
    Carolina next but prices are
    stll a challenge.
    Cantaloupe &
    Honeydews: Central
    America is fnished and the
    pressure is on California and

    KEEP IN MIND
    Stone Fruit: Prices on yellow and

    and black plums, apricots, black
    velvet apricots and pluots are
    down a bit this week as quanttes
    out of the west
    improve.
