'Jujube Red' is a luscious color used in Asia where they know the Jujube as a reliable crop. Jujube fruit are similar in taste to an Apple when fresh and when dried taste more like a Date though not as sticky or as sweet. Jujube is a good tonifying herb for poor digestion and many other stomach upsets. It aids digestion, strengthens the spleen, purifies the blood and relieves hunger while providing a healthy energy boost. When out on the trail for long hours I always take Jujube with me in case the work goes longer than intended, throw in your favorite nuts, and other fruits and you have a wholesome and satisfying trail mix. High in calcium, iron, potassium and vitaman C. We sell direct to the public every Saturday at the Santa Fe Farmers Market . Fresh fruit starts for us in late August/early September and after a few weeks fresh dried fruit is available. We also ship. Limited quantity of 2014 dried crop in stock

Jujubes are well paired with nuts, dried fruits, cheeses, chocolate, hot cereals, and many other foods.

They can be added to soups, sauteed with onions, or made into a hot tea.

Fresh $8.00 per pound plus S&H

Dried $18.00 per pound plus S&H
