Vi skulle en smuttur til Yuma,
Arizona, og fik lavet os et lille svinkeærinde ind omkring
Imperial Date Gardens, en af de største dadelplantager ude i ørkenen. |
We were going to Yuma for a
short trip, and went a little ways out of our way in order to visit
Imperial Date Gardens, one of the largest date plantations in the desert. |
Uhmmmm... Dadler! ~ Yummmm... Dates!
|
Dadlerne her er medjool dadler,
og er efterkommere efter de første medjool palmer, importeret
fra Marocco i 1927. Det er den eneste dadelart, der spises frisk. |
The dates here are medjool
dates, and are descended from the first medjool palms which were
imported from Morocco in 1927. It is the only date sort to be eaten fresh. |
|
Imperial Date Gardens er et
stort familieforetagende, og på trods af den ret øde
beliggenhed var det velbesøgt, mens vi var der. |
Imperial Date Gardens is a large
family business, and in spite of the out-of-the-way location it was
plenty busy while we were there. |
