Fruit gardens & parks in Miami
hi folks, I heard most of them are in the Homestead area. Any recommendation?
Do you happen to know any place that has a great collection of fruit trees from around the world? Can we buy/purchase custard-apple/sugar-apple at one of the farms in Homestead?
Many thanks.

Yes there are people that sell Sugar-Apple in the Redlands just north of Homestead. Do a search on the net and you can find some of the growers, I believe they are in season right now. The Fruit & Spice Park out in the Redlands is a great park with all kinds of Fruit Trees from around the world, this is the one you should probably visit. Fairchild Tropical Gardens has some fruit trees, but mostly trees from around the world.
