Question 9

What Is A Stone Fruit?

Accepted Answer

A stone fruit (or drupe) is a fruit with a large "stone" inside. The stone is sometimes called the seed, but that is a mistake, as the seed is inside the stone. The stones can also be called a pit.
 
Examples of our stone fruits are peaches, nectarines, plums, apricots, and cherries.

Question 10

What Is A Donut Peach?

Accepted Answer

They're the peach that looks like someone stepped on it - or at least that's what everyone at market tells us when they see our mondo size donut peaches every summer.
 
Donut peaches are super sweet compared to other peach varieties, smaller in size, and shaped different - but that doesn't mean we don't adore them. Donut peaches are a favorite around the farm. They are said to be more complex-tasting and flavorful, often described as possessing undertones of almond.
 
Their skin is yellow and red, and they are less fuzzy than many other peaches. The inside of the donut peach is pale yellow to white in appearance.

Question 11

What are Cling-On, Semi-Cling, and Freestone Peaches?"

Accepted Answer

Peaches are distinguished by their three different types of pits -
Cling, Semi-Cling, and Freestone
 
Cling - A "cling-on" peach are the type where the fruit is grown (or woven) into the pit.
 
Freestone - This is the variety where the the flesh of the peach is separated from the pit. The pit can easily be separated from the flesh when it's ripe.
 
Semi-Cling - You guessed it, the flesh of the peach is attached to the stone, but not fully woven into it.

Question 12

What is your pricing?

Accepted Answer

This is one of the most vague questions we get very often - so we figured we'd touch on it.
 
In short, our prices change from season to season, and sometimes week to week depending on the fruit/season. Different variables (time, our cost, duration of the season, quantity being purchased, weather, etc.) factor into the current cost of our fruit.
 
Never hesitate to ask - we love to work out deals with our friends and customers!

Question 13

Where Are Your Coffee Beans Roasted/Sourced From?

Accepted Answer

Imprint Coffee!! Wooohooo. Located in Sodus, NY Imprint Coffee Roasters is dedicated to sourcing with integrity, roasting with excellence, and serving our loyal customers with enthusiasm.
 
As we've done business with them for the last couple years, initially purchasing for our home church (shoutout Freedom Life Church in South Butler) and now for our family's business, we've examined the standard of coffee and quality of the humans that run Imprint. We give a major thumbs up to both.
