Guest guest Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 The best place to get dates is from Hadley Fruit Orchards in Cabazon, California. Their website is: www.hadleyfruitorchards.com. No matter where you purchase dates, they are rather spendy. My husband and I have purchased dates from these people, albeit, we did it in person. They are so good, the dates I mean. The service was excellent also. The only thing I wish they would have, is a hard copy catalog. I love looking at them, and my son, Jeremy loves catalogs even more than I do. When Sears stopped producing their big book catalog, was a sad day for us. We still have one, and it is getting rather tattered.
