For all those who picked some mangoes last Sunday, just a reminder on how to look after them.
To ripen, keep them somewhere cool but NOT IN THE FRIDGE. The ideal ripening temperature is 18-22 degrees (office aircon?).
Once they are ripe, they will keep in the fridge for up to a week.
If you want to eat any green, put them in the fridge now and they will last a while and wont ripen.

14/01/2024

Attention! Due to an unprecedented number of visitors to our farm on this beautiful summer day, all of our mangoes have been picked!! We do not have any left on the trees to be picked!

Thanks again everyone!
