These sweet yellow plums are pure sunshine! Don't skimp on the napkins, because these guys are juicy. Make a sunny upside-down cake; serve with crème fraîche for a light dessert; snack on them out of hand.

Beechwood Orchards

Biglerville, PA

Beechwood Orchards is a fifth generation, family-owned farm specializing in various tree fruits that has been operating in Adams County for over a century. The farm is currently being run by David and Tammy Garretson. In 2005 they were joined by their son, Shawn Garretson, after he graduated from Penn State with a degree in Horticulture. Last year Melissa Allen, their daughter, returned to the farm. She brought her two small daughters Isabelle (3 years) and Cammy (20 months) who have already begun to show an interest in agriculture.
