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!

I’m interested in trying their famous pears!
Have never had the pears and I hear they are the best!!!!
Nothing is better than a Harry and David pear!!!
Mmmmm…they all sound delicious, but the pineapple sounds especially good right now!
The mango and papaya would be great! It’s -20 degrees F here in WI today (although very sunny) but could use the tropical fruit to remind myself of some place warm. Glad to hear Sadie is doing well!
Thanks to you and Harry & David for the giveaway!
A great pear is a rarity. I’d love to try one of those.
I’d love to try the papaya! I never know how to pick a good one.
I would love everything in this basket, but if I had to choose one, I would say the pears!
I have heard great things about all of their fruit, but of course they are famous for their pears and I would be very excited to try them out. My mouth is watering already!
I want to try the pineapple! and so does my dog, olive. she loooves it. im trying to decrease the amount of added sugar to my diet, focusing on fruits for my “sweets”! this would be yummy.
A pear!
I have been seriously craving mango lately!
Pineapple – I haven’t had fresh pineapple since last summer!
My sister! She is a hard working phd student living in the city where good fruit is hard to find especially on a budget! I know this would brigthen her week as she is crazy for fruit especially the more fun stuff like the papaya!
I would love to try the mango, one of my favorite fruits!
I have a papaya obsession. I always have one sitting on my counter ripening.
Some fresh pineapple would be fantastic! A little reminder of tropical vacations on this day where its currently -6 outside and feels like -30 BRR!
pineapple!!
Oh my gosh! The pears make my mouth water just talking about them! Would LOVE to make crepes with the pears , so good with Greek yogurt (yum!) fingers crossed I win :0)
I guess the pears since they’re so famous. But the pineapple looks delish!
All of it looks just lovely – I would send it to my sister who has been recovering from a rare auto immune conditions.
Would love the mangos!!
Yum! All this fruit looks so tasty but I would want to send this to my older sister and her fiance, maybe as a gift for their first Valentine’s Day as an engaged couple!
I want to try that pineapple! Looks amazing!
Oooh! I want to try a papaya! I’ve always wanted to but was too intimidated to buy one!
Just getting over a miserable cold and recovering from surgery so I will send the basket to myself. It all looks great but juicy mango is the best and their pears just can’t be beat. Pick me!
Yumm! I love fruit and I absolutely love their pears. Pineapple isn’t something I usually buy myself, so that is also something I’d be excited to try.
The mango sounds so good! I need a touch of the tropics in the midst of this winter!
I am excited to try the Mango & Kiwi!
I would love to try the Mango… never bought one before! Or, I’d send it to my grandparents- my Grandpa is recovering from knee replacement surgery so some healthy “treats” around the house would be nice!
You have really talked these H & D baskets up!! They look awesome! I’m most excited about the papaya… I’ve never tried it.

Papaya! I have never had a fresh one!!
Would love to try the pear!
I would love all of those, but I have never tried papaya and would love to see what it tastes like!
I’m pregnant and craving fruit like crazy these days!!! The mango and pears sound delicious!
That fruit basket looks delicious! I grew up in Asia but now go to school in the rural midwest and miss having access to inexpensive and fresh tropical fruits. I’d love to get some of my friends and my boyfriend to try the papaya – it’s one of my favorites!
YUMM! Love Harry and David. I sent my parents and a family friend gift baskets for Christmas! I’ve been thinking of sending one to my boyfriends mom for her birthday. Those pears are to die for!
Papaya!! It’s so good for the stomach ! And the baby bananas! Do they taste any different!? YAY
I live in Medford so I especially love supporting Harry & David! I go to school out of state so I would send the basket to my family at home. I get plenty of fruit at school 🙂
The famous pears!
The entire basket looks amazing, but I’d love to try some of their famous pears!

Everything looks delish!
Those pears! Delicious.

I am a fruit-aholic, and loveeee Harry and David’s pears!!
I hate to discriminate since they all sound so delicious, but I think Im most excited for the pinapple and mango!
