Farmer Luca will be open 5 to 5:30 pm Wednesday at the farm with many many mangoes… plus pomegranates and turmeric. Enjoy!

(Most of our mangoes are smaller this year with the drier conditions which creates an extra intense flavor and sweetness)
Plenty
- Thai mangoes (nam doc mai) – silky smooth yellow buttery flesh, thin seed
- Jakarta mangoes – possibly the prettiest and tastiest mango
- Mallika mangos – big and green, taste like a super sweet and creamy orange, often compared to the drink “Tang“, one of Luca’s favorite mangoes
- Viequen Butterball mangoes – this is a monster big pound and a quarter mango in a good year, but sweet and buttery and almost completely textureless. You can just eat it with a spoon right out of the cheek. Similar to a Clinty Lang. 
- Haitian kidney mangoes – not to be confused with regular kidney mangoes that are really hairy. These are bigger, with a bit of texture, but not sticking in your teeth. Has a little lemony vibe, mild and warm.
- Carrie mangoes – rare variety that’s quite delicate, so never sold in stores, but outrageous in flavor with a lack of fiber
- Pomegranates – large pink, Zürich’s fave
- Turmeric
First come first serve.


The Viequen Butterball and the Jakarta are both wonderful, as I can attest.
So envious of folks who are home and can partake of this bounty! Next year I have to time my visits more carefully around mango season!
