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!

Harry & David fruit baskets were my mom’s favorite. During holidays when people would send them as gifts, my mom would send them to herself.
I would send the basket to my big sister because she misses my mom so much and I would love to see her face when she receives it and remember how happy these baskets of delicious fruit used to make my mom.

I am a HUGE pineapple fan!! The basket looks yummy…but I think I’d pass it along to a dear friend of mine and her family while she recovers from surgery for the next several months.
Melanie says
I would love to try the avocado and mango!! Everything from them looks so delicious. One of my favorite products they sell is a pepper and sea salt grinder (two in one!). It is amazing. Happy Friday : )
Ellee says
Every Christmas my parents received Harry and David pears and grapefruit from friends. We would fight over who got to eat them becuase they are so wonderful! We would stash them around the house or in our rooms! I would say I am most excited to try to pears, but all of it looks SO WONDERFUL. I think the pineapple may be the next thing I want to try!

Definitely the pineapple!
Ruchel says

Megan hAllaren says
I’d send the basket to my parents in Chicago. Since I moved out of state, they are always sending me treats and I’d like to send them something for a change. They would love some fresh fruit in the dead of winter!
Chelsea Shibe says
What a great giveaway! I would give the basket to my boyfriend, who is deathly afraid of anything healthy. I think if he saw the beautiful colors of the fruit and smelled the sweet aroma, he would have to give in and try some! And if he refuses, I know a very nice girlfriend of his who would be happy to take the leftovers!
Alex says
I’m definitely most excited about the pineapple! It’s the best!
Jenna says
The pears, of course. But baby bananas are awfully cute, too. 🙂
