|  Sun-Dried Fruits and Raw Sweeteners All of our fruits are organically grown in California (except the **Imported** Yacon Syrup, Incan Berries, Cacao Powder...they are Certified Organic, but not grown in California), unsulfured, unfumigated, sun-dried (no other heat used) and cleaned in cold water only. All the fruits are Certified Organic except the dates. None of our foods have anything added. For more information, please see Our Foods. Please feel free to order fractional amounts (for instance .5 pounds, or 1.75 pounds, etc) on any items. We try to keep our prices as low as possible. If you find a better price elsewhere for a organically-grown, raw, US-grown product, please let us know and we will try to match it.  Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Apricots $8.00/lb.  Blenheim variety. Apricots in stores are often subjected to a hot water wash, moistened with sugar water, and/or frozen. Not these! Sweet and very tasty! These are not re-hydrated, so are quite dry. This allows them to stay fresh longer and you get more for your money. Add a bit of water to moisten (about 3 Tablespoons per pound of fruit). If you desire that we re-moisten for you, select that option in the box above. Gluten Free.
 Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Cherries $14.00/lb. Bing Variety. Tender texture reveals a sweet taste of summer within. Very limited supply.
 Certified Organic Raw Cacao Powder from Navitas Naturals $12.00/lb  **Imported**
High in magnesium and anti-oxidents and containing about 16% protein and 19% fat, this is a nice addition to smoothies and desserts. It provides a nice chocolate flavor. From cacao beans grown in Peru, processed at low temperatures.
 Organically Grown Raw Dates $6.75/lb.
Available varieties change frequently. Currently, we have wonderful Barhi and Mecca Gold dates. They are quite sweet and somewhat soft dates. The certified organic dates we have found in the stores are from companies that often re-hydrate them with warm to hot water or freeze them. These dates are not subjected to any heat or freezing during processing. Grown sustainably and organically, not certified. Sweet, soft, and yummy! Due to a limited supply, there are no quantity discounts on this item. Gluten Free.
 Certified Organic Raw Black Mission Figs $5.50/lb. Figs in the stores are often washed in warm to hot water. These are cleaned in cold water only and have been frozen during processing to kill insects. Smaller and chewier than Calimyrna. Good calcium source. More fiber than prunes! Gluten Free.
 Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Calimyrna Figs $7.25/lb The Calimyrna variety was originally grown as the Smyrna variety in Turkish. It is brought to California and renamed to Calimyrna (combining California and Smyrna). Figs in the stores are often washed in warm to hot water. These are cleaned in cold water only and have been frozen during processing to kill insects. Good calcium source. More fiber than prunes! Classic favorites! Gluten Free. Due to a limited supply, there are no quantity discounts on this item.
 Certified Organic Raw Goji Berries by Navitas Naturals $14.00/lb **Imported** Out of Stock until 03/25/2010 Goji berries are a wonderful anti-oxident food, particularly carotenoids such as beta-carotene and zeaxanthin (helpful for retinas).

Grown in Ningxia Province, China. Dried at low temperatures. Sweet and tangy.
 Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Nectarines $7.00 Sweet and chewy....very tasty. These are not re-hydrated, so are quite dry. This allows them to stay fresh longer and you get more for your money.

 Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Peaches $7.00 These paradoxical morsels are deceiving...so sweet and tasty! Summer abounds with these yummies....These are not re-hydrated, so are quite dry.

 Certified Organic Raw Flame or Thompson Raisins $2.60/lb. Anytime we have asked whether raisins we were buying had oil added, the seller could not tell us for sure. Labels don’t always list the added oil, even though they should. These have no oil added and have not been frozen. These are minimally processed and have some stems. Thompsons (from green Thompson grapes) are pictured. Flames (from red Flame grapes) are larger, darker, and have a richer flavor. Gluten Free.
 Certified Organic Raw Sun-Dried Tomatoes $14/lb. It is difficult to find Organic sun-dried tomatoes without anything added. That is what we offer you here. No salt, citric acid, oil, or anything else. Just tomatoes dried by the sun. Very tasty. Please feel free to order fractional amounts (for instance .5 pounds, or 1.75 pounds, etc). Gluten Free.
