Plum City Re-Opened (after a five year break)
This week have been delighted to discover that Plum City has re-opened (after a 5 year break).
This is their Facebook page - www.facebook.com...
Very capably run by Bex Coddington, she has a beautiful array of yellow flesh nectarines, white flesh nectarines, black splendour plums, yellow flesh plums, peaches, apricots all $6/kg and - my all time favourite - plumcots (a plum and apricot cross) - think heaven dancing on your tongue - also at $6/kg!
And cherries 🍒 $16 a kg
Located at 9 Longlands Road East, just on the left after the Te Aute Road turn off heading towards Railway Road.
And the bonus is that Bex also has a fab coffee machine so you can get your Bay Espresso coffee fix and a cookie while you stock up on fruit.
There is Eftpos connected so you can just swipe and go!
Open everyday leading up to Christmas day opening at 8am-3.30pm.
