ASU alumnus and volunteer Joe Roche holds up a ripened Black Sphinx date during the first of several volunteer events to harvest dates from the Polytechnic campus date palm germ plasm in Mesa, Ariz. on Saturday morning Sept. 25th, 2021. The Black Sphinx date is a rare and newer date discovered 100 years ago in the Arcadia neighborhood of Phoenix and is often sweeter and softer than most well known dates.
