This week, we're sharing a sort of video field notes – not for the fruit in this week's box, but of the season to come at Masumoto Family Farm.
If you're unfamiliar, the Masumoto family grows some of the most delicious stone fruit in California. We eagerly await their first peaches and nectarines. Nikiko Masumoto, the third-gen farmer who leads the farm along her father Mas, was kind enough to send along a field update.
