Should I grow kiwifruit? This picture is of an arctic kiwi that believe it or not is cold hardy in Vermont. They are about the size of a grape or cherry tomato but with the taste and appearance of a mini fuzzless kiwi. The bright tropical taste seems out of place for our northern regions but they have proven to be a reliable producer despite our cold nip. I am thinking about trying them out at the farm.
