Hi -

Do you know any farmers/wholesalers/distributors that sell Thai banana and ship them to southern California? Today, I found a couple farmers in Florida but they can't ship bananas to California.

Thanks,
Tuan

The full-size plant of "small but fat banana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisang_Awak)" is sold as Misi Luki here in the states, and the slightly shorter and smaller-fruited is sold as Dwarf Namwa.

Thanks! Hopefully, I can locate a farmer/wholesaler/distributor who can sell nam-wahs bananas to consumers in southern CA.

Thanks,

Are you looking for plants or fruit?

Sorry, for not making my inquiry clear. I am looking for the fruits (not plant) and I am posting my inquiry in Fruit sub forum.

Thanks,
Tuan

There *should* be a listing somewhere of all the farmer's markets in your area, that may be a good place to look.
We have several full size Asian (Chinese mostly) grocery stores here in Sacramento so depending on how far you're willing to travel, you should be able to locate some much closer to where you are.
What zipcode (or city) are you in?
