A Guide to Choosing Fruit
Fruit bundles are wonderful coming from the growers we work with. Here are some bullet points and helpful information to give you guidance in choosing what works for you.
In-Season Focus: Because we are dedicated to in-season, local produce from growers we know, we don’t stray away from this. This limits what we have to offer in fruit, and though it’s wonderful, our strength is really in the vegetables. We have great options to choose from, so you can put together what’s best for you.
Citrus Delights: From January to May, indulge in vibrant citrus varieties that add a burst of sunshine to your day. Perfect for juicing or snacking, citrus fruits bring joy even on the gloomiest days.
Stone Fruit Season: From May to October, savor the juiciness of peaches, nectarines, plums, and more. This period marks a peak in fruit popularity, offering excitement and refreshment with every bite.
Fall Favorites: As autumn arrives, relish the rich flavors of persimmons, asian pears, and pomegrantes, perfect for busy mornings or satisfying snacks. Each fruit brings a unique blend of nutrients and fulfillment to your table. This time of season you can also add fresh figs as an add on to any subscription.
Nature's Variability: Embrace the natural ebb and flow of flavor throughout the seasons. When fruit reaches its peak early, mid-season, they’ll naturally have heightened flavors, as they begin to go out of season you’ll notice they start to naturally lose some of their intensity. It's a reminder of life's ever-changing beauty.
Weather Considerations: Weather fluctuations do impact fruit availability, but we adapt to nature's rhythm, ensuring you still receive the finest produce from our dedicated farmers.
Organic Assurance: While organic fruits occasionally exhibit imperfections, rest assured our diligent team carefully inspects each piece. If you encounter any issues, let us know, and we'll make it right. Imperfections are part of the organic journey, highlighting the authenticity of our produce.
Support Local Growers: By choosing our bundles, you support local farmers committed to quality and sustainability.
Options: There are some fruit options available as single item add ons while in season like, strawberries, fresh figs, peaches, cherimoyas, and sapotes. Our fruit bundles come in 2 sizes, and can be your main subscription or an addition to another bundle. If you need any help deciding what would work best for you, feel free to give us a call! Otherwise, a few pointers. If you want more fruit than what is available in the mixed bundles, try an all veggie bundle, and add a small or heavy fruit. Or if all you need is extra fruit once in a while, try adding a small fruit once a month. You have the option to add it as you go, just be sure to make any additions or changes by the Tuesday deadline.
You’ll know what’s best for you. The value of local, organic fruit is something to be savored.
