Most of the stored fruit is junk. What I was pushing was farm stand fruit shipped your way. Like the fish the mongers toss at the Pike Place Market. There are other stands that have lesser quality produce that I do not recommend. Grocery store fruit is junk. clay > On Aug 30, 2016,

Re: [MBZ] Carolina peaches

In spite of rain and humidity in the 90% range, the cardboard carolina peaches I threw on the compost pile are so dry they are not rotting after 5 days in the pile. The cardboard peaches must have been plasticised with something that is not natural. Sorry Clay, I make it a point to AVOID the

Nothing on the web site about shipping. So I was in Boise last week and went into a Wally World near the hotel I was staying at. Lo and behold, they had large bins of LOCAL IDAHO PRODUCE super cheap, along with B.C. and Washington State cherries!! I checked around and no one else had any fresh

My neighbor who has the farmstand at the end of my driveway goes to the farmer's market in Columbia a coupla times a week to get stuff that doesn't/won't grow here (tomatoes are now past here, 2nd crop coming later, so he's getting them from NC now I think) and picks up peaches which come from

Re: [MBZ] Carolina peaches

The crap peaches here were from NORTH carolina! Unfortunately, grocery distribution systems don't care if the crap they sell is any good. The bean counters only look at "shrink" and margins. Any peach worth eating will have some bruising, but the bean counters can;t have that. On

Re: [MBZ] Carolina peaches

Jaaaja peaches may be ok if you get them tree ripened at the orchard, but west of the Mississippi, they are garbage. Very few stores even bother to stock them. The problem with everything in the grocery store is that it is picked too green, unless it is a fruit or vegetable that keeps well,

Re: [MBZ] Carolina peaches

I'd guess they have different varieties for export/travel to other locations, and these are most certainly worse than others. I refuse to purchase peaches anywhere other than my local stand in Chester NJ. They're outstanding, currently $25 for a half bushel. I'm on my third box this month.

Guess we are keeping the good, exporting the bad? Fresh fish caught locally usually gets exported, and we get frozen here in Mount Plastic, which drives me nuts. I can buy fresh Carolina fish if I drive to Atlanta GA... -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '87 300TD '95 E300
