Happy Friday! How about a giveaway to kick off your Friday morning?
If you adore high-quality fruit, today’s giveaway will be right up your alley.
Back in October I had the honor of touring the incredible Harry & David orchards in Medford, Oregon with a handful of other bloggers. It was a truly unforgettable trip and I fell in love with the company, their delicious food and beautiful Oregon!
I’ve stayed in touch with the folks at Harry & David and was awfully excited when one of their incredible gift baskets showed up at my doorstep last Saturday.
The basket was the company’s Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe and I immediately pulled all of the different kinds of delicious fresh fruit out of the basket to check out the goods!
As of this morning, Ryan and I have made our way through 90 percent of the basket and were, once again, impressed with the high quality of the fruit Harry & David delivered. Every single piece of fruit was blemish-free and full of flavor.
Naturally the company’s pears deserve a lot of praise, but I was particularly impressed with the quality of the mango, kiwi and pineapple in this basket!
I swear this stuff is like fruit candy. So sweet!
As for the gift basket itself, you better believe I kept it. We’re now using it as a pretty way to store towels.
And now here’s your chance to win your own Harry & David Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe!
In the basket:
- 3 Royal Riviera Pears
- 4 Apples
- 2 Kiwi
- Papaya
- Pineapple
- Baby Bananas
- 2 Limes
- Avocado
- Mango
To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment below, telling me what fruit you’re most excited to try in the basket, or, if you’d like to send the basket to someone else as a surprise, please comment telling me who you’d send it to and why. I will randomly select a winner on Monday morning.
Good luck!

Irene says
Eating fresh fruits has helped me maintain a balanced and healthy approach to wellness. I have finally let go of getting caught up by diets and meal plans and embraced the simple mindset of listening to my body and modestly consuming what nourishes me… which includes lots of fruit!

Harry and David steals my heart, so much love for the pears. Even though they are a Christmas staple, I’m most excited about those every time:)
Michelle says
I would absolutely LOVE to try out the mango! It’s hard to find good quality semi-exotic fruit here in Alabama!
Emmy says
I’m a big apple person, so I’m looking forward to trying some high quality H&D apples! 🙂
Julie W says
Fresh pineapple is by far my favorite fruit! So I would most definitely look forward to that. But I’ve never tried a papaya, so it would be neat to try that too.
Sam @ The Balance Artist says
That basket is gorgeous!!! (Love the Anthro towels you put in the basket after the fruit….I have them in white/cream.) I have never had a Harry & David pear, so that would be the most exciting, but I think mango and papaya would be awesome, too. I don’t think I have ever bought either of those fruits to eat at home, I have only had them at restaurants.
Jennifer says
I have always heard amazing things about Harry and David’s pears and I would LOVE to try them. I’m pregnant and have been craving fruit like crazy but live in Texas making the selection not so great.
Stephanie Helling says
I would love to try the pineapple. I am somewhat obsessed with kale smoothies right now, and I love putting new, fresh fruit in there. 🙂
Erin says
YUM!! The papaya sounds delicious!
Jennifer D says
I have always been curious to try their pears. That basket doesn’t stand a chance in my house, my two boys and I will devour it fast – the fruit not the basket 🙂
