You can Send Fruit Gifts Year Round for any Occasion

Fruit gifts are always in season. No matter what time of year it is there are delicious fruit gifts available that showcase seasonal fresh and delicious citrus fruits. Sending fruit gifts is easy to do and very affordable when you compare the costs of shopping for and sending other gifts. Most people don’t like to spend money on treats for themselves, so they don’t buy delicious fresh citrus fruit from the grower they buy fruit from the local market. Fruits like oranges, grapefruits, and other citrus fruits taste best when they come directly from the grove. When citrus fruit is bought and shipped to markets it can sit in a truck in all types of weather for as long as two weeks and then it’s covered in preservatives. Fresh fruit direct from the grove is sent within days of being picked to your loved ones all over the country and tastes fresh picked because it was fresh picked. Many people are amazed at the flavor of fresh citrus fruit when they are used to only having store bought fruit. You can give the gift of rich, delicious seasonal fruit to the people you love anytime of the year. Here’s a quick breakdown of what fruits are in season during the year:

Spring/Summer: in late Spring through most of the summer the best seasonal fruit available is Valencia oranges. Valencia oranges are tangy and sweet and have a brilliant color. They are perfect for the summer because they are light and refreshing, as well as easy to transport on picnics and other outings. Valencia oranges are low in calorie but packed with fiber, vitamins and minerals that will help you stay healthy throughout the summer and give you the energy for summer activities like swimming. Fresh grapefruit varieties are also in season until June of each year. Grapefruit is available from late Fall until summer so you can enjoy different types of delicious fresh grapefruit throughout most of the year.

Fall/Winter: In the fall Navel oranges come into season, along with exciting citrus treats like Honeybells and Clementines. Honeybells are famous for being the type of fruit most often given at Christmas because of the festive bell shape of the fruit. Fruit gifts featuring Honeybells are extremely popular holiday gifts and tend to sell out every year. Grapefruits are also popular fruit gifts during the long winter months.
