PYO starts tomorrow!!!!
Remember boys and girls that PYO Stephens Favourite and PYO Moorparks start tomorrow!
The weather forecast saw the odd chance shower but it certainly won’t amount to anything.
Remember to bring your own shopping bags, buckets, containers, boxes, etc.
Don’t worry if you forget as we have plastic bags available ?
Due to poor pollination conditions during the springtime, our Moorpark crop is lighter than we would have liked ?
These conditions affected apricot crops throughout the district but even if you can’t get Moorparks from us, we can send you in the right direction to someone who will be able to supply you ?
PYO nectarines should be ready to roll around Wednesday.
Shiro plums are now available on the Stall and Billington plums….(our first red plum of the Season) will be ready around Wednesday.
The Stall is stocked with a range of apricots for all your apricot related needs ?
If you have a fruit query, txt my sister Ruby on 027 288 6090. Remember we are open from 7am-9pm …7 days a week.

PYO Roxburgh Red Finished!!
PYO Roxburgh Red have finished as from now. We have been innudated since early this morning and the trees have been picked out. Sorry everybody! We still have plenty of fruit on the Stall though so a trip up Central will not be wasted.
Remember PYO will restart next weekend with Stevens Favourite and Moorpark.

Fruit Update
We have had a hectic day with PYO Roxburgh Red and have been unexpectedly inundated with PYOers since the early hours of this morning.
Tomorrow will be the last day of PYO Roxburgh Red and with rain forecast around noon if you want to get some then come as early as possible.
After tomorrow we won’t have any PYO available until the following weekend (January 19-20) when we will have PYO Steven’s Favourite and Moorpark.
This season has been all over the place and a combination of a light apricot crop around the district and an early season has made for a challenging time to say the least.
We will still have a plentiful variety of apricots available on the Stall this week and Shiro plums will be on the Stall from later on this week.
Billington plums are about 5 days away and PYO nectarines are STILL about 9 days away.
Will keep you posted 🙂
Any queries then flick us a message or call/txt Ruby on 027 288 6090
