Yum! There are usually plenty of guavas around, and I’ve only bought them recently.

One place I regularly find quince is at east Asian grocery stores. I’m encouraging you. :wink:

We have them available in Canada right now. Available at Remark in LdnOnt, and at Farm Boy across Ontario. I have also seen some Italian and Turkish stores in Toronto advertising them on Instagram this week.

They cost $4 to $5 each, which I find to be pretty expensive for a single quince! I don’t know where they are being imported from.

The Tree that I harvest is ripe in mid-October most years.
I wouldn’t bother with expensive, out of season Fruits.

I traded a few bags of my potatoes for a few bags of a friend’s homegrown quince in Oct 2019. I had fun cooking with quince that fall.

We went separate ways due to very different beliefs with regards to some stuff in the spring of 2020. I haven’t found another local quince buddy yet.
