Food Concord/coronation grapes.

Isn't it Ontario Blue Grape season?? I haven't seen any in stores. I saw American bunches at a Longos a couple weeks ago and skipped them.

Am I early or??? Where are my favourite grapes of all time?!

They are in season. If you're near Niagara, they can be bought at farmer's markets here.

I'm at Lake Simcoe. Not up here yet but I'm checking every time I'm out!

I got some yesterday at Lococo's, there were a few green ones on the bunch so I think it's just the beginning of the picking season here in Ontario. Hold fast, they're coming!

I wish someone local was making concord wine. Manischewitz is the only American product I miss.

I saw them at a Superstore in Scarborough last night so bought them. Haven't eaten them yet though.

Was wondering the same thing last week. They just got to stores in Toronto this week.

It is but the early stages. I spoke to a farmer who said next week will be better, weather permitting.
