Hobbs Orchard update

Out of Greengages!

Greengages finished today with all orders going out tomorrow.

We now have delicious Black Amber plums on the Stall and loads of Bon Chretian Pears.
Black Doris plums start in about a week or so and Coxes Orange Apples around March 5.
Royal Gala should be ready about a week or so after the Coxes.

I can’t wait for a crunchy Apple!!!

Still Got Greengages and Loads of Pears!

We still have a good supply of Greengages available on the Stall as well as loads of Bon Chretian Pears.

Greengages are in 2.5kg bags for $10 and Bon Chretian Pears in 5kg or 10kg bags for $5 or $10.

Pears and Greengages This Weekend

On the Stall this weekend we have Bon Chretian Pears and Greengages.

Pears are sold in 5kg bags for $5 and Greengages in 2.5kg bags for $10.

All PYO fruit has finished for the season.

We’ve Got Greengages and Pears!!!

Thanks to some fine weather speeding up the ripening process, we now have Greengages and Bon Chretian Pears available on the Stall! Woohoo!

The Greengages are being sold in 3kg bags for $12 and the Pears in 5kg bags for $5.

PYO Nectarines Have Finished!!!

We got completely picked out of Nectarines yesterday thanks to a massive influx of customers.
That marks the end of PYO for this Fruit Season.

We only have a small range of fruit on the Fruit Stall at the moment as we are waiting for our Bon Chretian Pears to ripen up.
We expect the Pears to be good to go within the next 5 days.

Fruit For Waitangi Day

Today on the Stall we have the last of our Clutha Gold Apricots available as well as some Red Gravenstein Apples.

PYO Nectarines are also still available and the weather is meant to be fantastic today.
At this stage the Nectarines may be gone by the weekend so if you can make it up today then you will be able to get some before they run out.

Pears Running Late

Due to a very crazy fruit season our Bon Chretian Pears are running about a week late.
They are usually ready on Waitangi Day but this won’t be the case this year (the first time in 22 years!).
We expect them to be ready to roll early next week so I’ll be posting an update on the blog closer to the time and I’ll also be ringing those of you on our Pear ringing list to let you know ahead of time.

We don’t really have much available on the Stall today as we are between fruit varieties at the moment. We have a some stewing Apricots and a few Plums and Apples on the Stall as well as some really tasty PYO Nectarines.

Out of PYO Apricots and Peaches!

We have completely finished our PYO Apricots and Peaches for this season thanks to a very busy weekend.

Right now we have some remaining 2nd Grade Apricots available on the Fruit Stall as well as some Red Gravenstein Apples.
We also still have PYO Nectarines available.

By the end the week we are hoping to have Bon Chretian Pears available as well as Black Amber Plums.
Stay tuned!

PYO Still Available

We had a very busy day yesterday but there are still a good supply of PYO Nectarines and Peaches.
The Moorpark Apricots are still available but there are very few left so I expect them to be finished early in the day.

Weather is meant to be fine today with a high of 27c.
