I read Haitian mango farmers are really struggling to import their fruit and make ends meet. I have been going through hell trying to find these mangoes anywhere which are apparently available through August and starting again in November. Does anyone know where I can get these or any decent mangoes for that matter? I live in Northwest CT. In all the stores the only mangoes available have been the standard round ones which are generally hard as a rock and never ripen properly.
Anyone else as fired up as me about underripe fruit and the lack of quality mangoes?

NYC. There are piles of them (including the Haitian ones and my favorite ataulfo) all over the fruit stands on the street. Selling for $1 each and lately ripe and ready to eat.
Thanks. If only there were some closer though!
