We will have Early Black and Howes available. Great color and quality.
Early Black: Discovered by N. Robbins in 1852 in Harwich, Massachusetts, they are the first berries
to market in September. Growers like them because they can be harvested before the fall frost season. The berries are smaller
and yield less than new hybrids but have a sweeter taste and intense red color. Early Black is used for fresh fruit and processing.
The variety makes great wholeberry cranberry sauce. About 90-130 berries fit in a cup. This variety represents 43% of
acreage in Massachusetts. We have 3.32 acres of early black on our farm.
Howes: Discovered
by E. Howes in 1843 in East Dennis, Massachusetts, Howes are harvested about three weeks after the Early Blacks. Howes produce
bigger, firmer, tart berries and they store well. Howes can be sliced and still hold their berry shape. Howes are a great
fresh fruit berry. About 80-115 Howes berries fit in a cup. This variety represents 36% of acreage in Massachusetts. We have 7.66
acres of Howes on our farm.
