David Karp works for Dean & Deluca, the eminent New York City-based gourmet store, as a freelance fruit forager. He recently spent 10 days in California's San Joaquin Valley researching an article on white nectarines for the Wall Street Journal (July 24, 1998 issue). If white-fleshed peaches and nectarines are not available in your area, David recommends Goossen Farms as a mail-order source.
