Are selling the fruits? Price per pound?
Thanks

I think you’d have to know the grower and “bribe” them with fruity gifts or have them be very nice and sharing like many forum members , but I think every mango lover in CA would love to buy some sweet tart mango’s. I can’t imagine more than 100 pounds being harvested in all of Southern California though. Is there any commercial groves with anything but the Coachella Keitt’s in CA?

Not sure if its the same people but Wong Farms sells Valencia Pride and I think is in Coachella as well.. excellent quality fruits, I and a friend got a box this year from them. They also sell their own 'golden lady' but I didn't get to try that, they're always sold out.

According to this article, Wong Farms grow all three: Valencia Pride, Keitt and "Golden Lady".   I thought the CA grown Keitts were from another farm.

I've been fortunate to purchase the VP and Keitts at the Santa Monica Farmers Market.  Their Keitts are so much better than the store bought Keitts.
