The Polly Newsletter June 2002: Summer’s Fruitful Bounty
As you may know, citrus is in season from early November though mid-June. To keep you supplied with premium fruit throughout the summer, we’re searched for other premium fruit varieties around the country that are in season beginning in June, and we’ve arranged to have this specialty fruit shipped directly to you.
From mid-June throughout July, we ship tropical Mangos. If you’ve never tried a Mango, a traditional way to serve it is to pour fresh squeezed lime juice over the slices. The combination of sweet and tart brings out the full flavor of the mango. It’s delicious for breakfast or desert. For an even sweeter desert, top premium Vanilla ice cream with chopped mango pieces; for an extra splash of color, top with a dash of raspberry syrup.
You’ll find these tempting varieties in our new Spring/Summer catalog: Bing Cherries (June); Georgia Peaches (mid-June through July); Plums (July); Rainer Cherries (first two weeks of July); Apricots (mid-July through August); Nectarines (August); White Peaches, Dapple Pluots, and White Nectarines (mid-August through mid-September); more Golden Peaches (September); and Red Grapes (October).
If you’re wondering what a Dapple Pluot is, it’s a new taste sensation we’ve discovered that tastes like both plums and apricots.
Whether you’re keeping your family supplied with fresh premium fruit, or looking for a great gift idea, you’ll find everything you need for a fruitful summer in our latest catalog or at www.halegroves.com.
