Nevada's hot days, high altitude and cool nights create a much sweeter fruit.  Berries, stone fruit, apples and many more sweet treats will be in abundance this year thanks to this season's moderate weather and precipitation.  Rainier Cherries from Sweet Farms in Fallon, NV will be arriving in store this Friday...and likely to be gone by the end of the following week - don't miss this rare gem opportunity!  Scott Goodpasture from Pioneer Farms in Fallon, NV will also be bringing in a small amount of freshly harvested apricots on Friday...based on last weekend's farm tour reviews, we anticipate these to be gone by the end of the weekend.

We recently visited Terri & John Sweet's gorgeous 5 acre orchard farm.  They raise all of their trees and plants with natural and organic methods. Their pest abatement practices are eco friendly and sustainable...one example is that when trying to control aphids they used a watered down mineral oil solution to suffocate the little critters as opposed to using a toxic pesticide.
