Put on a pot of java order a pizza or pop some popcorn excellent video

Paul did a wonderful job producing this video in the noisy neighborhood we call South Florida. Alex did a excellent job of showcasing some of the varieties that are grown at Tropical Acre Farms
Hopefully they will produce more videos I would love to see St. Maui. What mango varieties would you like for Alex to showcase?
I was tickled to see a Carla mango tree.The variety I can't get no one other than John51 to discuss. I took Delight in hearing that Alex has one at his own Hacienda

Coffee with pizza or popcorn? You need a palate recalibration. Lol

I agree, awesome video! I laughed when Alex said he once had a stomach ache after eating to many pina colada mangos. If I worked there, that would be a daily occurrence. I hope I can order some fruit from the newer varieties. I'm still unpacking all the information that was given.

Please keep the videos coming!

Black coffee no sugar and cold pizza is seriously one of my favorite breakfast meals

Its the coffee and pizza. I love coffee and love pizza/popcorn, just not together.

That was the most informative mango video I’ve ever seen and I took a lot of very important information from it that I will now use to improve all aspects of my mango growing obsession.

Wait. All those mango varieties, and did Alex say his favorite fruit is mamey sapote?? EDIT: Nope, I went back and he said, "One of my favorite fruits." (Video is pretty awesome. Alex is the Mango Man!)

John B 51.....probably 52 by now
Just in case you missed it and you probably didn’t Alex said that his favorite mango is Sweet Tart. I totally loved that part of the video. It’s at 1:05:16 minute mark. A million varieties from around the world and he had the guts and fortitude to come clean with what he believes. A man who puts TRUTH way above the dollar.

'51 is the year I was born so that doesn't change. (I'm an aging Boomer like you, trying to stay youthful and relevant.) Yes, he did say Sweet Tart was his favorite.

Well.....what matters is I hope you at least laughed at my very dumb joke!!! 1949 going on 35 y/o

Enjoyed the video. Especially when hearing about the Mekong mango.
I bought mango scions from Alex last Summer. They were quite healthy and well packaged.

What! Mamey and sapote are not two new variety of mangoes

Thanks John 51 for clarifying that I feel like such a Fuzzy Lumpkins

You squirrels better get off of my property!!!

Living the dream, but working his butt off and definitely NOT getting rich in the process! (I'm so glad/we're so lucky that you have other values, Alex.)

Love this video as well! Also happy to find out they use organic products since I had assumed they were conventional. I’m so excited to mail order new varieties this summer from tropical acres! Hopefully the prices for shipping aren’t too high!
