The 1987 guide, which will be available mid-October, lists companies under their main product line including apples, meats, peanuts and specialty combinations.
The specialties area has become so diverse that it has been compiled by key products such as cheese, Christmas trees, cookies and candies, jams, jellies and preserves, sauces, herbal vinegars, mustards, seasonings, wool, and specialty baskets and combination gift packs.
For your ordering convenience, the last possible order date for guaranteed Christmas delivery is indicated by each company.
