It looks like the avocado season has come to an end. We expect the new season to begin in late February but we will keep you updated! In the meantime, we still have all our other lovely local products available to end of year gifts and treats!
Avocados are a beloved fruit, celebrated for their creamy texture, versatile flavor, and heart-healthy oils. These nutritional powerhouses have become staples in many diets, offering healthy fats and essential vitamins. If you find an avocado with unsightly blemishes, don’t be quick to toss it. Surface imperfections rarely mean the fruit inside is spoiled.
Often, the avocado flesh remains perfectly ripe and ready to enjoy, despite external blemishes. These flaws, caused by sunburn or wind damage, usually don’t affect the quality of the fruit inside. At Fresh from the Farm, we sort avocados carefully, discarding only those with compromised internal quality. We keep fruit with surface flaws but excellent internal quality, reducing food waste and ensuring you get to enjoy nutritious avocados.
This selection method not only makes avocados more affordable but also supports a sustainable food system. By using blemished fruit, we minimize waste on the farm and maximize each harvest. We also include avocados with unusual shapes or sizes that might not meet aesthetic standards but are still delicious.
Choosing Fresh from the Farm means supporting a small business committed to reducing food waste and promoting sustainability. We carefully evaluate each imperfect avocado to ensure it meets our quality standards, reflecting our dedication to both high quality and environmental responsibility. Together, we can make a difference in our food system—one imperfect avocado at a time.
By embracing these changes, you help build a more sustainable and less wasteful food system. We stand behind providing quality produce that supports a healthier planet. So, next time you encounter an avocado with blemishes, remember that it can still be a tasty and nutritious choice, helping to make a positive impact on our food system and the environment.
