Market Flavors: 12/11 + 12/12

We can hardly believe how quickly December is going -- Hanukkah's already behind us, and there are only two weekends until Christmas. Of course, we're particularly excited about our holiday party this Tuesday (12/14) as well!

Don't forget, this weekend is extra special because we'll be at the Noe Valley Farmers' Market on Saturday, as well as the Kensington Farmers' Market on Sunday! We'll have lots of extra jam with us for your holiday entertaining and gifting needs.

Fruit Watch 11/2: Pears, Quinces and Crabapples

We had a fantastic weekend up in Mendocino, and made sure to stop at The Apple Farm in Philo on the way! While there, we sampled a number of excellent varieties, and came home with some gorgeous Flemish Beauty pears, tiny red crabapples, and two types of quince. We also sampled several excellent apples, including Northern Spy, Sierra Beauty, Philo Gold, and Fuji. We love them all, and it's so fun to taste them side by side, because they are so different from each other! We can't wait to get going on some new flavors...
