My Ballard BlogPopular Ballard fruit stand Top Banana opened for the season this week, My Ballard reports. The fruit stand, at the corner of on N.W. 65th St. and 15th Ave. N.W., typically opens later in the year. But owner Jimmy Wild wanted to take advantage of the warm spell, according to the blog, and begin regular hours of 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day.
