September got busy for us so Jacques and I toured his garden for ripe treats in early October. We tasted fruits that are mostly available in both months: September + October. But a few usually aren’t ready until October (persimmons and macadamia nuts).

As usual in Jacques’ eclectic garden, we sampled from some plants that are commonly grown in Southern California and a few that are very rare. I had never even heard of a midgen berry. Enjoy!
