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!

It all looks delicious! My boyfriend and I have started (trying) to live a much healthier lifestyle ever since our parent’s health has started to decline. This fruit basket would make eating healthy easy and enjoyable! The kiwis look so yummy!
Well, I’ve yet to meet a fruit I don’t like! However, with all your praise about the pears, they are most definitely at the top of my list!
It’s all wonderful but the pears, definitely the pears!
I love fruit and would love to try them all, but I heard so many good things about the pears that they would definitely be the first thing I would try 🙂
Pineapple of course!!!
The pears are my favorite! The pineapple looks good and juicy as well
I am most excited to try the Papaya! I’ve never had Papaya before!
I love mango–such a treat!
I would love to try their pears or that pineapple does look amazing!
The basket looks amazing. As a college student I would be excited to have all the fresh fruit( I normally can’t afford too much of it). The piece of fruit I would be looking forward to woul be the mango. I have never had fresh mango so it would be great to try.
Pearss!!!!
The pineapple looks amazing!!
I can’t wait to try the pineapple.
Oh how I looovee fruit. That basket looks Divine! Living in Ohio our fruit selection gets a little boring this time of the year. Anything other than grapefruit, or oranges is beyond appealing. However, I love exotic fruits and have never tried a papaya. I think I would love it. I also have found it interesting how all the different kinds of pears taste so different. So I would also love to try Royal Riviera Pears! Yummy!!!! Thanks 🙂
So creative what you did with the basket! And Oregon is beautiful, I plan on moving there once I finish college to be a Dental Assistant. I would love to try the baby bananas because I have never tried them and they are so cute!Like others said though, there isn’t a fruit that I have tried that I didn’t like(unless it isn’t ripe!)
I’m dying to try one of the famous Harry and David pears! (With a shmear of goat cheese and some craisins.) Yum!
I love how you re purposed the basket! I can’t wait to try the pears- I’ve heard how great they are!
The kiwi pineapple pears apples lol all of it
I absolutely adore the pears! They are always so delicious and juicy and I love when my husband brings home our yearly box of pears!
I have never had a pear … in my life! I’d love to try them; they look yummy!
Would be most excited for the pears but the kiwi looks great too!
Wow! Everything looks amazing, but I have always loved pineapples and mangos! I little tropical vacation in my mouth lol
My roommate and I buy each other fruit and veggies for the week, I would love to surprise her with awesome fruit! I would love the pineapple and she would go crazy for the pears!!
Pineapple! It looks absolutely delicious in those pictures!
My kiddos eat pineapple like its candy- and I’m glad to hear this pineapple tastes just like it!
Pineapple….and pears, of course!
I would love to try papaya! I’ve never had one before, and I’m too afraid to buy one from the store because I don’t know how to pick a good one. I’m betting that the Harry & David people only include the good ones though!
I would definitely love to try the kiwi, but everything looks and sounds delicious. I’m scared my mom and I would devour the whole basket in a day!
I have had a very hard time with so much of the produce that I love being out of season. I would love to try the pears! 🙂
Since I live in Europe now, I couldn’t get the basket in time to enjoy it:) BUT…I would love to send it to my mom because she has always tried to teach me to be healthy & works hard at being healthy and active herself. My dad passed away 3 1/2 years ago and I don’t get to do enough special things for her like I would like, and would love to send her this basket!
I’m most excited about the papaya
I’d love to try the pears–they’re so good with blue cheese and thyme!
The pears!!!! H&D have the best pears I’ve ever eaten. The baby bananas look extra cute though too!
I would totally send this basket to my mama- who inspires me to eat clean and exercise every day! Fruit is our dessert and what a treat this would be!!!
I LOVE fresh fruit! I would love to try the pineapple. I have such a hard time picking good pineapples at the store.
How can you pick just one?! Apples are my absolute favorite but would love to dig into the avocado 🙂
The pears!!!
I would love to try the famous Harry and David pears.
Those Royal Riviera Pears sound heavenly! Would love to munch on those little delights!
I would love to send the basket to my mother-in-law she is having some health issues and would love a surprise!
That pineapple looks delicious. But after seeing the pears you’ve been eating – I think I would be most excited about trying them!
I would love this basket! My kids eat fruit like there is no tomorrow and it’s hard to find good fruit this time of year.
ooh. mango please!! my favorite. or perhaps the baby bananas. aperfect snack size! i thank harry and david for the amazing oranges of my childhood.
The basket looks beautiful and delicious! I would love to try Harry and David pears! 🙂
I’m most excited about the pears – good pears are an amazing treat!
I think my family could go through this basket in a day – we’d each have our favorite. My 7-year old is all about mango, and my 4-year old loves kiwi. The pears would be my favorite and my hubs subscribes to the “apple-a-day” theory. Thanks for having another great giveaway!
I would love to win for my whole family. We’ve recently had some financial hardships including one sister and hubby losing their home so it would be a small but wonderful blessing to share with everyone (there are now 6 of us living together). Also since I recently found out I have a dairy allergy, it’s something I can eat & I LOVE their fruit!!!
I would live to get this basket for myself and my little ones. We all love fruit in any way shape or form. My two youngest have been rotating some sick bugs between them as of late and this would be a fresh treat for them.
The baby bananas! I can never find those and they are the perfect size!
I would love to try the Papaya, because here in Canada they’re not as fresh and hard to find! Thanks for the giveaway
