the region produce an abundance of fresh fruit

At this time of year, the region produces an abundance of fresh fruit.

At this time of the year, the region produces a plenty of fresh fruit.

For a start, should I use year or the year in the above sample and why?

Do an abundance of and a plenty of refer to about the same quantity of fresh fruit?

Thanks.
