Welcome to the Fancy Fork! Your Seasonal Produce Insight and Farm-Style Recipes that Are Made to Satisfy.

The summer season makes its introduction with nothing less than the best, as the sun smiles a little longer and the birds chirp a bit louder. And with that, it welcomes a fruit-heavy harvest filled with apricots, cantaloupe, cherries, kiwi, peaches, watermelon, cherries, blueberries, and more. From classic berry cobblers to simple fruit salads, to our vegan berry scones, each fruit is unique in keeping things fresh and exciting. And what’s even better than their scrumptious flavors? They are excellent sources of essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber!

These lightly sweet scones are fluffy, flaky, and made with extra virgin olive oil as a healthier substitute to butter. And the best part is that you can substitute the strawberries for any fruit you may have on hand to experience the full delights of the blossoming June produce!
