Happy fall, fruit lovers 🍁
Fall fruit is peaking right now — crisp apples, juicy pears, and sweet persimmons are having their moment. We’re savoring every bit of it! But as the season goes on, things naturally start to slow before winter citrus begins to sweeten up.
As we head into that in-between time, we’re already thinking about the holidays and all the cozy celebrations to come. It’s one of our favorite times of year — a little slower, lots of good warm food, and a chance to spend quality time with loved ones.
And this year, we want to wrap the season up on a high note in December — something festive, always delicious, and loyally rooted in the farms we love working with. We’ve tried a few ideas over the years to fill the gap between fall fruit and citrus season, but this time, we’d love to hear from YOU!
