    buying organic dried fruits / nuts

    Yes, I have patiently gone through all the related posts on the forum, plus I checked out all the links to different organic shops.

    And I was quite disappointed to see there is nothing!

    So I would like to ask if these are available as organic & sun-dried ------
    1. figs
    2. apricots
    3. dates

    Also these nuts in the shell (again organic) --
    1. almonds
    2. walnuts
    3. pistachios

    I would really appreciate it, if someone can point me to a shop in HK that sells these!!!

    cheers,
    vishal

    I have definitely seen organic figs at my local shop. Haven't checked for the other things, but they might have them:

    Oh, yes ontheroad is right...360 should have them for sure!
    Thought of one more place today. Gourmet has a whole section of organic nuts & dry fruit. There's a Gourmet in Causeway Bay as well (bottom of Lee Gardens).
