Date: March 22nd, 2007
We will start harvesting wild plum flowers over the next few days. Our season will be cut short due to the warmth (days in mid 70s) which makes the flower buds open very quickly. We anticipate harvest time will be cut in half and prices will be higher than anticipated, as the harvest will be smaller.
$40.00 pint
$75.00 quart
$250.00 gallon
5 gallon $1,000.00
At this point we believe we will produce 65 - 76 gallons over 5 day harvest and distillation window.
Wild plum flowers do not dry, freeze or store well. All flowers reach the distiller within 3 hours of leaving the tree and it is a slow, low heat extraction.
Please email your requested quanities as soon as possible
