  • John from www.okraw.com/ visits China Ranch Date Farm outside Las Vegas during the Date Harvest to share with you how the date fruit grows and is harvested. In this video you will also learn the origin of many varieties of dates, as well as how to they propagate the date palms. You will also discover why some dates you purchase in the store may not be "raw". You will see first hand how dates are processed after they have been picked with the behind-the-scenes tour here at the China Ranch Date Farm. You can order their dates online at www.chinaranch.com/

    China Ranch is Great. I picked up some dates and an old science fiction book from their shop. Then we hit the trail to the slot canyon, Beautiful desert.

    This is one of those videos in the health/raw world where from start to finish, it nails its purpose on the T.

    my father worked on the palm dates for many years, those trees were very tall and dad used a latter to climb and once up there dad would put a hook around the branches and other chains and had a "seat" where he would seat and somehow dad would go around the palm tree harvesting the dates in a can, dad would lower the cans and we would spread them on wood boxes and sort them out. Other times dad would cut the branches and let them fall on the boxes. We helped dad during school vacation

    We eat organic (Medjool) dates (and figs) on a daily basis. Thanks for the informative video, John. I'll give the honey dates a try.

    MEDJOL dates are the most delicious, very plump and soft and perfect in a milk shake! They are more expensive because the way they are harvest is more delicate, the other dates are hard and you can pound the branches on a carp or boxes and the dates will not get damage.

    I love Deglet Noor dates. While watching this video I made a few trips to get some Tunisian Deglet Noors out of the fridge to munch on. I bought them at an Indian Supermarket.

    actually the off-shoot in 4:02 is considered a sucker and it takes all the nutrients from the date palm,, the offshoot comes the trunk near ground..

    oh yes you can use the dried tree branches instead of wood to cook but they burn fast. Dad would make a huge fire to keep us warm and then heat up our burritos mom would fix for us! Us kids also used the palm tree branches as baseball bats!

    I've seen bowls/dishes made from palm tree stumps. I'd imagine if they were resin infused, the fiber structure would be quite strong to make other things with.

  • @chooselove4all

    Can you do a video on how to tell good quality dates from infested ones? I've bought them by mail order from 2 companies from California and they had weird hard white balls inside at the crown that looked like insect eggs- one date even had some kind of translucent worm in it. Others have strange hard things on the outside. I am worried that they sold me "culled" dates as if they were good ones, but there's no information on the web to arm the consumer- maybe because it's unpleasant to discuss?

  • @chooselove4all
    @chooselove4all 11 лет назад

    The one that was the worst was Datesrus. I called them and emailed them that 80-90% of the dates they sent were infested, and they promised to send me a check to refund my money, but it never arrived. The last time I wrote them, my email bounced because it had been blocked, so apparently they decided not to refund my money and to ignore me as well, despite my request to return the dates for a refund. I had half a mind to send them to the USDA but haven't. Not sure what to do in cases like these.

    Dear tv-person, I can recommend 1 lbs or more of dates per day. It is not insane. Fruit is the most nutritious food on earth.
