In this video you will also learn the origin of many varieties of dates, as well as how to they propagate the date palms.

  • can you freeze the dates?

  • Yes, you can freeze dates for long-term storage. I suggest putting them in the fridge and use them as needed.  I dont often eat frozen foods. (including dates)

  • At first I was like: "What the hell are dates?" then I saw them and was like "Oh those things!". They go great with cheese.

  • A really well done video John. I will definitely by ordering dates from China Ranch.

  • @katuray33 yea lmao you know you love dates when you are eating dates while watching videos about dates

  • 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.

  • incredible data, thanks John! I had no idea of all these varieties and how they grow and what to be careful for. I will definitely try other kinds next time I buy some.

  • 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.

  • i love love dates

  • @DedFysch bahahahahaha. Yup... good one. Love the look on his face when the camera pans back to him...

  • Great Vid , Thanx for posting!

  • "Liked" the video when John said, "Ow, shit, got me, I'm bleeding." Hilarious!
