Blueberries

Fats Domino found his thrill on blueberry hill, and the FruitGuys are thrilled to offer these. Blueberries are power packed with nutrients. Add some sweet notes to your yogurt or coffee-cart granola by tossing in a few of these real-deal berries.

White Peach

Delicate peaches with pearly flesh have been with us since the 1600s but have only recently become popular. Their super sweetness is associated with the term “sub-acid” – meaning the less acidic, the more sweetness emerges.

Valencia Orange

Citrus waves are rolling in like an endless summer, brah. The primo Valencia is old-school orange. A tangy treat to take down the hall to the dawn patrol. Slice into sections for orange smiles all around – and let the sunshine in!

Golden Delicious Apple

Golden Delicious Apple -- West Virginia's state fruit is very sweet to the taste, but is prone to bruising and shriveling, so store and handle carefully.

Cameo Apple

Cameo apples made their first appearance as a little stray seeding in an orchard in the upper left corner of Washington state. Cameos are tart and aromatic with stripy skin. Alfred Hitchcock was the king of cameos, popping onscreen in 39 of his 52 movies. The Cameo is sure to be the apple everyone is watching for when the fruit arrives.

Lemon

Lemons originate from Portugal but have been growing in California since 1949. Super tart with few seeds.

Tangerine

All tangerines are a kind of Mandarin orange. They hail originally from Asia, but have been grown in North America for over 100 years. Tangerines are seedless and very much like Clementines but easier to peel and somewhat sweeter. Zip the peel to receive a refreshing scent that will chase away the winter blues. And, of course, Tangerines are high in Vitamin C to give you a boost for the cold season as well.

Gold Nugget Tangerine

Gold Nuggets are sweet and seedless little mandarin oranges, cousin to the Satsuma, recently bred at the University of California Riverside in the foothills of the Box Springs Mountains. The Citrus School that also brought us the Navel orange. There’s gold in them thar hills!

Hass Avocado

The Resplendent Quetzal bird has vibrant color and a three foot long train. Its domain is the cloud forest and it sups on avocados. Slice open an avocado, knock out the pit, scoop up the velvety flesh, and let this fruit take you from the office into an exotic jungle.
