Giumarra Vineyards has begun production on its new proprietary green variety, the highly sought after Arra 15. This sizable variety features a creamy finish, crunch, and outstanding sweetness. Giumarra Vineyards is also at peak season production on its conventional Thompson, Princess, Arra Red and Unknown Black, along with the crisp Golden Globe and unique Italia Muscat that gives customers a taste of the “Old Country”. Giumarra will transition into the Fall with Sweet Scarlet and Autumn Royal varieties, and increased production of Autumn King & Scarlet Royal. Randy Giumarra, VP of Sales, states, “For years our company has helped retailers increase traffic and lift grape sales through multi-varietal grape promotions in August and September and it’s not too late to schedule a Grape-a-Rama ad for the coming weeks.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Herndon Farms is wrapping up its Vidalia sweet onion deal and transitioning into Peruvian sweet onions. The company, based out of Lyons, GA, anticipates a strong Peruvian market and has been working hand to hand with the company's growers down in Peru. John Williams, tells AndNowUKnow, "Our sweet onions from Peru are Granex, short day onions; a close Vidalia cousin. With a great growing region like Peru and the quality we have seen so far, we are looking forward to a great Peruvian season to carry through until January.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
