“We are over 100 years old and a family-owned business, and we're promoting Lemonade™ apples, which are almost year-round now,” Gary Caloroso, Regional Business Development Director, starts off saying. “From New Zealand during the summer, and then our domestic deal with the states of Washington and Pennsylvania.”

Lemonade apples are bright yellow, adding a pop of extra color to the produce department. They also have a cool, sweet, tart taste.

In addition to its Lemonade apples, Giumarra will also have DulceVida nectarines from California this summer. Local berries from the United States and British Columbia are also on the supplier's menu.
