180 Fruit Stands

Post by robow8 »

Are there any fruit stands on the 180 on the way in to SEKI? I would like to pick up some fresh local fruit on the way to the Rae Lakes end of July.
Thanks!

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

The Blossom Trail fruit stand is a good one. Good variety and some real nice pluots and plums. Another good one nearby and right on Hwy 180 is the Centerville Fruit Station at 16155 East Kings Canyon, Sanger. Both are listed as being in Sanger, but are actually right on Hwy 180 to the northeast of the City of Sanger. The Blossom Trail FS is at the corner of Reed and Hwy 180 just south of Minkler and is open only during the summer months. The Centerville Fruit Station is in the heart of its namesake, the thriving metropolis of Centerville and is open year round. They have a fantastic variety of citrus right now (Cara caras, blood oranges, tangelos, etc). Don't blink or you might miss both. :) :) :)
