I picked the fruit today.  Didnt pick a ton since we always have way too much.   Hopefully 10AM this Saturday works for everyone.  Let me know if you are coming so I can get an idea how many people are showing up.

Nice Kang see you. 

Simon, if you are coming and feel up to it some sugar juice would be awesome.  If its too much hassle don't worry about it.  Ive got some canes but we have been rationing it.  Need to plant more of that its one of our favorites.

One of my Santa Rosa seedlings has its very first fruit ready for picking today.  I will bring it for tasting.  It's a good looking fruit.  It should taste ok, perhaps good.  We will find out.

Hey Brad, I値l be there this Saturday. I値l see if the canes are sweet enough. I chopped most of my ripe canes for some beer I made so my remaining canes are very young. I値l have some Cherimoyas, probably Pierce, Booth and Behls.

This is turning into an extravaganza.  I can feel the excitement building.  Go, Team Cherimoya!

Paul you would have already needed to cut the fruit for it to be ready by Saturday I think. 

So it seems like the group is pretty small which is good, I dont want a big party this time.  Theres a lot of equipment and mess here with construction and parking is limited.  Please just bring yourselves this time, no guests and no new people this time sorry.  Several new people asked about coming, nothing personal I just dont want so many people this time.  Last time there were friends of friends and family of everyone and the UPS driver and his hot daughter :o and my brothers wifes aunts daughterinlaws sisters cousin once removed. Too many people, I didnt even get a chance to chill out and talk to most people that came.

We can do a huge party next time I promise.

And if you know what's good for you, don't bring any peach-eating coyotes, either!

This seems like it will be an awesome event!  It's great that you're doing this to share and taste fruits that some may never get a chance. Hope the next large one will accommodate more people.
