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!

carolyn says
I’m most excited about… any fruit at all! Since our local produce shop went out of business, we have to get it at Giant and it costs 2x as much… which means I get less fruity goodness.
Olivia says
I’d love to send the basket to my mom ’cause she’s the one who got me hooked on Harry & David!
BrendaBettina says
Any fruit!! All looks delicious!!!!
Ava says
The baby bananas. They’re so cute! Of course the pears too. I’ve heard so many good things about them.
Lili says
I would totally send it to someone but I need to test it out first 😉
That pineapple looks amazing but I NEED to know how a Harry and David pear compares to any other pear.
Rohan says
I have never had the pleasure of trying a Harry and David pear, so I’d love to try one. BUT I L O V E avocado. My bf makes fun of me because whenever we go out to eat and there is a sandwich or salad with avocado on it, I order that!
Melissa says
Many moons ago I used to L-O-V-E pears, but these days, it seems as if the quality of pears have been less than impressive. It wasn’t until this last Christmas when my dad received some Harry and David fruit as a gift, that my love for pears came back! I now remember why I loved them so much! Incredibly juicy, perfectly ripe, and down-right delicious!
Kayla says
Oh my goodness this looks great! I used to live in Venezuela so it would be awesome to have some delicious tropical fruit again! Not so easy to find here in TN!
elise says
