Sunriver is a full service stop for specialty Fall items. Beginning in August through the first
of the year, think Sunriver when stocking your full service Fall line-up.
ASIAN PEARS . . . Beginning in August with Hosui (brown) and Shinseiki
(yellow) Asian pears, we pack in single layer and two layer tissue wrapped cartons. These "applepears" are
so sweet they might be cause for an extra trip to the dentist. The Asian pears are hand packed and PLU stickered
to ensure consistent quality. |
PEARS . . . The beginning of Fall is marked by the
Bartlett pear starting at the end of
August. This old standard cannot be
beat and starts in the river bottom
of Stockton and progresses to
the Northern California
mountains for seamless
harvest and availability.
Our pear availability also
includes Starkrimson
(reds), Golden Bosc
and European Bosc
pears. Our pears
are all consolidated
in Exeter to ship with
your tree fruit needs.

POMEGRANATES . . . The "grenada" or gre-nade is
the start of the pomegranate season at the beginning of September. The Foothill variety begins in mid September
into October and is capped off with the Wonderful variety from October until after Thanksgiving. We do not harvest
our pomegranates until they have full red exterior color and cut "blood red" in color. We
hand pack and PLU sticker our pomegranates in a nostalgic TKV lug that makes a perfect
centerpiece for the Fall palette. |
PERSIMMONS . . . October 1st marks the beginning of our persimmon season which
complements our other Fall items. The Fuyu (flat and pumpkin-like) is the Asian persimmon for eating.
This is packed in single layer or volume filled cartons. The Hachiya is the traditional cooking persimmon that is
harvested from October until the end of December. Either variety tops off the perfect centerpiece
or makes cookies that remind you of grandma during the holidays. |
