Did a potato tour this past week. Saw some great looking Russet potatoes! #potatoes
It’s cherry bloom time in Washington State! We toured orchards this week and saw Rainiers, Chelans, the Audra Rose and more in bloom!
It's hard to believe 2022 almost has its first month in the books already. We looked back at our 2021 sales, and these were our top 10 items sold for last year. Potatoes and onions remained #1 & #2 for us and melons jumped from 10th to 9th place.
We can't wait to see how 2022 plays out, and as always - if you want to learn more about any of our items, or are looking for representation give us a call or shoot us a message here.

These modern apple packing lines are impressive AND huge! The amount of technology utilized to get a piece of fruit into a box is truly remarkable!

We currently have Golden Berries/Cape Gooseberries loading at our Oakland office facility.
Golden Berries are popular in jams and preserves and have a sweet/mild tart flavor. Give us a call!

It’s always fun to be at various apple packing line locations throughout Washington State!
Apple season in Washington State is winding down. We came across these braeburns being picked this past week.
Shipped sample boxes of EverCrisp apples to some customers and foodies!
Cosmic Crisp is one of the newer apple varieties and it is sweet and delicious. We checked out some amazing ones yesterday. #apples #CosmicCrisp #washingtonapples #freshproduce #freshapples
Size 72 honeycrisp apples on the left. Size 36 honeycrisp apples on the right. The size refers to the number of apples in a standard 40lb box. Sizes 64-88 are the most common in produce departments for bulk apples. Bagged apples use smaller apples for the most part. A size 36 could feed a family!

Have you tried a Honey Belle Pear yet?
Our Oakland headquarters just taste sampled the Honey Belle pear from New Zealand and definitely were impressed!
We will have them available in 3 sizes starting in mid March. The pear tends to produce a smaller size profile, and we are expecting our initial peak sizing to be in the 50-59mm size range which is about 90-110 in our U.S. pear sizing. It is a crisp and juicy pear and has very low acid. It is also known as a super sweet pear and has proven popular in Asian markets. It's often described as the perfect snacking pear.
If you're interested, shoot me a DM.

Eric Patrick from our company is doing 30 days of fresh produce on his Twitter site and we thought we’d mimic his posts here as well. Here is his Day 5 of 30 posts and it featured fresh blueberries from @naturipe Farms as part of his homemade yogurt parfait for lunch. #blueberries #freshproduce #berries #pickedfresh #produce #blueberries💙 #blueberriesarethebest #healthyeating #eathealthy #eatfreshproduce
It’s the Cosmic Crisp apple and it is one great tasting apple! They should be available in your favorite produce departments now! #apple #cosmiccrisp
Now that’s a big apple! Out looking at Washington State apples today and saw some size 36 #honeycrispapple - they were huge. Something you don’t see everyday. Enough to feed a family for certain! #apples

Organic Red Delicious apples on the line. 🍎 #apple #organic
Pink Lady apples are one of our favs with a perfect balance of sweet/tart. We found some delicious one for one of our accounts this week. #apples #pinklady #washingtonstateapples
We go out and look at plenty of cherries. This is the new loading dock under construction for one of our #cherry partners. It will help trucks get in and out quicker.
Hiking in the Yakima Valley can lead to wildflowers.
We were just out looking at some bagged galas yesterday. A basic item. They were sweet, had a nice crunch and firmness and a terrific size for a quick snack. #apples #galaapple #washingtonapple
