Finally, Beach Food Meets Its Match: Fruit Stands On (Near) The Board Walk?
Who doesn’t love the beach? I sure do.
The sun, the sand, the kids, the views….
But the snacks sold on the boardwalk do nothing for a beach body.
You know the drill.
Soda. Pizza. Ice Cream. Taffy. Chips.
So I was beyond excited over Memorial Day weekend when I spied this little stand set up a stone’s throw from the Rehoboth Beach boardwalk.
“It’s a trial,” the woman selling strawberries told me.
Determined to support that trial, I bought two cartons of the fresh, local Delaware-grown strawberries. (They weren’t even organic, and I still bought them!)
So this last weekend when I hit Rehoboth Avenue once again, I set out to look for my favorite beach fruit stand.
But sadly, it wasn’t there.
What gives? Worried that my one healthy “street food” choice was gone, I called the fruit stand’s owners, Fifer Orchards.
And I’ve got good news for all you fresh fruit fanatics: the stand will be back on the 4th of July, and hopefully most weekends thereafter till August.
What about you? Have you seen fruit stands near your favorite boardwalk before?
