ABC 15 Sanoron Living Show ( FARMERS MARKET DELIVERY SERVICE )

Local produce delivered fresh by an indoor farmers market


They ended up only having Merissa Ramos, the co-owner of the North Scottsdale Farmers Market, doing the talking for the show. It's a cute little segment about the market! Check it out! It describes what we do there. It also opens up the possibility for those whom live over there in the Scottsdale-Phoenix area to get our produce delivered to them. So if you know anyone over there whom isn't on my Wednesday delivery due to being out of our delivery area, let them know about this option for our produce! Thank you so much! Have a great Weekend!

Peach Season!!!! ( Storage & Ripening Tips )

Peaches are best kept at room temperature but are also not harmed by refrigeration. To make your peaches last all week, eat the softest first, place firm ones in the bottom of the fridge, and rotate "a day's worth of peaches" from the fridge to the counter each day you eat peaches. This way, tomorrow's fruit will ripen as you eat today, and the rest will be waiting for you in the refrigerator. Though it varies with peach varieties and weather conditions, peaches commonly last one week or longer in a refrigerator.

Can't Wait Any Longer? Fruit ripens in the presence of a gas called ethylene, found naturally in the fruit. A cool trick to quickly ripen your "firm ripe" peaches should you find yourself in need is to cut a piece of a high ethylene fruit; an apple or banana, and place it in a plastic bag with the peaches you wish to ripen, tie the bag shut at the top and place on the counter or in the fridge (depending on how dire the peach emergency is - don't panic, just place bag on counter). It won't take long at all using this method.

Season's are Changing Fast

The Apple Season has ended. We will be excited to have them start to come back after the summer has gone. We will have Valencia Oranges and Grapefruit Varieties for a few more weeks..

Good things are coming, We have a stretch of limited types of Citrus and then we will start to see the Peaches, Plums, Apricots, Pears Etc.. You have to love Arizona for our great Diversity of Fruits and Veggies!!!!!

Should start to get Apricots, Nectarines, Peaches, in the Middle to the end of May!!!!! May have a Desert Variety Peach a week or so earlier.. We will SEE!!!!!

Thanks Everyone!!!!
