Rapoza Mango

As of November 2008, we are into our avocado and citrus seasons. Malama is the first avocado variety available and it will be followed by Semil, Sharwil and Murashige. They are all creamy and tasty with small seeds. Citrus is also coming in nicely with lots of juicy, flavorful Page and Valencia oranges. We've also got Clementine tangerines and Tahitian limes available. We now sell direct to the public, so please  contact  us to be added to our direct sales list. We will send an email to let you know what is available for pickup each week.

You may be surprised to learn that even in Hawaii, the climate is seasonal for optimal production of certain fruit. Even year- round fruits like bananas and papaya that thrive in the warm, sunny days of summer, slow down production considerably in the wetter winters of Hawaii.

Generally, citrus (lemon, lime, orange, tangerine) are more productive in winter months. Avocados are available in fall and winter, and mangos from early summer to as late as fall.

The chart below will give you a good idea of what is available and when during the year.
