Little Baby Pears.

This picture shows our newly minted  Asian Pear  babies.  They're just about the size of green peas right now.  Sticking out of the top of each pear, y ou can see the remains of the blossoms and stamens.   As the fruit grows, becoming heavier, the pear's stem will bend downward and that "festive head gear" will become the pear's bottom.

Cheese, Glorious Cheese!

Our local cheesemakers are a fantastic source for farm fresh cheeses in numerous styles, and they all go well with Subarashii Kudamono Asian Pear Spread!

Here are just a few of our cheese neighbors to explore.  Rabbit Run Farm, (Lehigh County), B.A.D. Farms and  Valley Milkhouse, (Berks County), and Birchrun Hills Farm and Cherry Grove Farms  in Philadelphia and nearby New Jersey areas.
