Memorial Day Ad Time!

The Green Bean harvest is set to start tomorrow, April 24th. Make sure to call early to get your order in. It is expected to be a quick harvest. Ummm can't wait for some Fresh Green Beans cooked in a little olive oil, garlic, and slivered almonds. They are even good enough to eat raw off the vine. Maybe we can persuade the PRF Bunny to get up from his nap under the grape vines and pose for some photos with the Beans!

The Green Pepper harvest is gearing up. Look at the beautiful Peppers we are picking! The crews love picking in this great weather.

We have our best crews out making sure that only the best peppers get packed in the Peter Rabbit Farms Label.

Now is the time to place your Memorial Day ads for Table Grapes, Red Bells and Eggplant. We will have a promotable volume of Flame Seedless Grapes shipping starting May 11th. Aggressive pricing will be available towards the end of May and early June. Our Sugraones will also be available for volume loads starting around Memorial Day and progressing through mid to late June.
We like to think its all in the way you treat the vine. By providing the right mix of sunshine, water, and nutrients, Peter Rabbit Farms produces beautiful Grapes. We are expecting the best quality that we have seen in years. Any way you slice it Peter Rabbit Farms has the right product at the right time. Call one of our experienced sales staff and see for yourself how good we can make you look!

That is John Burton's hand in the background. So you know that bunch of Summer Royals is big if it covers his hand!

One of the things we are looking for this time of year just before harvest is the canopy on the grape vines that protect the bunches from getting too much direct sunlight. You want to have good growth that protects but not so much that the workers have difficulty getting to the grapes themselves. As you can see from these photos we have great canopy on the vines. Those bunches are going to be great!
