Mostly with nitrogen. Sometimes produce is held this way for many months. ick! Thanks for the Tip Top tip. I'll keep my eyes peeled. We are lucky enough to have a neighbor with a Santa Rosa plum tree. I would climb on the garage roof almost risking life and limb to grab those juicy purple prizes. All done for this year. We're now eyeballing the fig trees... Hi Shuna,

I don't know if Tip Top is a vendor at temescal, but i had an amazing Santa Rosa plum from them today at the Berkeley market!
