Chocolate Persimmons are available! Chocolate persimmons are named for their variegated, brown-speckled flesh rather than their flavor. Their taste is sweet and sugary, with hints of subtle spice. The fruit's texture changes with ripeness, ranging from firm and crisp to soft and jam-like. Their skin is smooth, taut, and dark orange to reddish. The photo depicts ripened fruit.

The fruit has to be held in the kitchen for several days to acquire the brown, jam-like appearance. Be patient, they are worth the wait.

The Chocolate Persimmons are 5$ for three pounds. And they are packaged in three pound bags. And all of our produce and eggs are produced organically.

We will harvest our Fuyu, Saijo and Hachiya persimmons later this week.

Hello. Aronia Berries (Chokeberry) are available at the Black Dog Farm stand. I have hot canned these astringent beauties, and I have made a sauce which I stored in a freezer.

2 dollars per basket (10 oz.). One basket contains more than enough berries for the cookie recipe shown below. I do not know how, but the cookie recipe greatly reduces the astringency and makes a great cookie! Enjoy.

Here is a link providing detailed information about these berries.

Hello! Today we harvested green seedless grapes. We will have several pounds available. These grapes are very good. We packaged them in 4 pound bags. Each bag is 4$. Enjoy.

Hello! We added purple seedless grapes, Italian plums and Calville Rouge apples to our farm stand. These apples originated in early 17th century Normandy, France. It derives its name from the dark violet bloom that develops as it approaches ripeness.

They are not common in the US but can still be found in the old cider orchards of Normandy. Baked Calville Rouge apples maintain their shape well and have a creamy texture. They are best suited for pies, compotes, crumbles, and other baked apple dishes. They are not generally considered an eating apple.

In the image of the cut Calville Rouge there is damage at the center core caused by our primary nemesis, the Codling Moth. Ugh! For our home use, the damaged area is removed, and we use the rest of the apple.

All of our products are grown organically. The purple grapes and the pink grapes are 1$ per pound and available in 4 # bags. These grapes will be available for several days as we harvest only the ripest grapes each day.

The plums are 2$ per pound. The apples are 1$ per pound and available in 4 # bags. Enjoy!

As always, our stand is self-serve, open all the time, and located at 4882 W Evans Creek Rd in Rogue River. Thank you for enjoying our products.
