  • I got to visit a 30-acre farm near my house that has amazing fruit trees. We are in the middle of mango season and they have mangos for sale at a great price.
    Naga Gardens Farm is a family-run farm in the West Palm Beach area that grows exotic fruits and vegetables. If you are local, products are available for pickup. If you are out of state, they can ship to you fresh.
    They are best known for their lychees, but they offer many other delicious items like sapodillas and more.
    Naga Gardens Farm is located at:
    3160 D Rd.
    Loxahatchee Groves, Fl, 33470
    Check out their website at
    nagagardens.com/
    Facebook page
    / nagagardens
    If you have a yard and you are growing fruit trees I'd love to come and film. Especially if you are in the South Florida area. You can contact me at paul@rawlife.com please include the area you are in.

    Farmers are some of the most patient and optimistic people. They plant a tree not knowing how long that tree will bare fruit, in one year or 4 yrs.

    The elephant mango is meant to be ONLY eaten when it’s unriped by the Vietnamese as he mentioned and dipped in a sweet fish sauce with a bit of black pepper and optionally sliced chili pepper.

    This is heaven on earth, you guys should think about making it open for visitors for some fees. Provide some food and snacks hire somebody knowledgeable about all the fruit trees. You can generate much more revenue that way. Just think about it.

    There is a difference in ice cream bananas. Blue Java is the true ice cream banana. They are selling namwa as an ice cream. The blue Java is definitely more blue/grey in color. But the real way to tell is how the fruit attaches to the main stem. The blue Java fruit attaches directly to the stem whereas the namwa attaches to a collar around stem. Subtle but a useful visual.

    You should try growing Willughbeia Coriacea (or other fruiting rubber tree species). They say the fruit is like orange sherbert. It is nicknamed heaven fruit. Another type of fruit that is growing in popularity for health benefits is gac fruit. It is usually only grown in South Asia, so anyone growing it in the US would be able to sell the freshest available.

  • @nateross14
    @nateross14 Před rokem +5

    If I could only grow one type of fruit it would be either Bananas, Navel Oranges, or Avocados. I'd have a hard time choosing between them. I'd probably choose Bananas becuse of the advantage that they are plants and not trees, and much easier to propagate through pups, easy to dig up, and relocate, can be chopped down and regrow, etc. Bananas are fun to grow and also double as tropical ornamental plants. I think Bananas and Citrus are highly underated only because of the high availability and so common. I predict we will soon be seeing Banana and citrus supply disruptions, and they will become high demand and short supply which will greatly increase prices. I think we'll be seeing 2-5x price increases maybe more. Because of easy international trade, fruit imports keep prices low with high availability but I think we're about to see global food shortages and drastically reduced fruit/food imports from tropical countries. Pinnapple is also going to be a high dollar limited availability fruit thats easy to grow. If I was starting a fruit farm, looking at what I see coming in the near future, I would have Bananas, Citrus, and Pinnapple be my main crop and also have a few Avocado trees as the core produce. Then add a few novelty trees like Mango. When the real food shortagea come and the imports stop, most people will be wanting Bananas, oranges, and pinnapple far more than Mangos and other rarer exotic fruits IMO.
