Most green kiwifruit commonly out there is the Hayward variety. Bryce decided to plant Mega kiwis about 4 years ago. Fall and winter seasons can be pretty slow for stone fruit growers so he decided to add a vine-fruit to the mix of their third-generation tree-fruit operation, bringing color and variety to their seasonal offerings. A local grower recommended the Mega variety because it was tried and true for the area and produced larger fruit than Haywards. Also, they produce fewer doubles/fans/butterflies (when it looks like two kiwis merged into one).
These Mega kiwis have a wonderful texture and are very sweet when ripe. We love supporting the few small kiwi growers in CA. Kiwi plants are dioecious, which means the females and males live in separate flower houses, on separate plants. Getting viable male plants into the mix is crucial for fruit production and the bees on the farm do the rest to make it all happen.
Grown in Parlier, CA.
