Description
Green skin avocados are usually described as being buttery. They require a soft touch to feel for ripeness as their skin colour doesn’t change colour. Green skin avocadoes are generally lower in fats and oils in comparison to dark skin avocadoes.
Our green skin varieties include Fuerte, Pinkerton, Ryan, Gwen and Reed. Fuerte are usually early season and the rest come in a bit later.
Perfect for adding to salads, on toast and paired with Bev’s Bounty’s Macadamia Nut Dukkah, as guacamole or simply by itself.
They help in lowering the risk of heart disease, promotes gut health, protects your eyes, increases brain function, are almost free of sodium and are a great source of potassium. This is just to name a few..
*Just a reminder with all avocado deliveries and especially late season avocados, please open the boxes when they arrive and keep in a cool place if you wish to keep them from unripening quickly. Avocados naturally release a ripening agent called ethylene gas. When stored together and in a closed container, they ripen much faster.
*You may find blemishes on the skin of the fruit, but please don’t be too quick to judge as there shouldn’t be anything wrong on the inside. If you are unhappy please send us a photo on WhatsApp so that we can make things right with you.
