Tips for Dining, Eating, and Food Shopping in the Greater Los Angeles Area (including Orange & Ventura Counties and SW San Bernardino County)
Start New ThreadI have fresh huge delicious hachiya persimmons. Haven't seen any hachiyas at farmers markets or stores--so I'm wondering what to charge to sell them. They're great for eating now, for pies and pudding, for drying--so delicious, and for freezing. Garden lady

FWIW, have seen them in Mar Vista Farmer's market in a couple of stands the last 2-3 weekends.

Did you have personal trees or orchards? If you can't find a way to sell them, you might contact http://www.foodforward.org/ or your local food bank. Food Forward will come and pick them and donate them to a food bank.
Most of the better farmer's markets have them right now. Not sure what they charge.

Many vendors at the Calabasas farmers market (Sat. am) have had both hachiyas and fuyus for the last several weeks, generally around $2 a pound.
