Stone Fruits: Apricots, Peaches, Nectarines & Plums

Stone fruits are short-season, delicate products where timing and handling decide quality on arrival. We group apricots, peaches, nectarines and plums here because they share harvest windows, packing styles and shipping considerations. Tell us which fruit you need and EL-SHIMY will confirm what can be sourced.
