Eat Your Fruits (and Vegetables)
A step up from your generic fruit basket, the organic fruit boxes from Frog Hollow Farm are packed with reliably delicious seasonal gems, hand-picked from their trees in Brentwood, California, during their growing season (which typically kicks off in May) and sourced from other local farms during the rest of the year. A recent box included crisp Pink Lady apples and a variety of citrus, all sweet and near-bursting with juice. Check their website for the most updated seasonal selection.For a gift that keeps on giving, the farm also offers an organic fruit club with seven shipments throughout the summer, featuring the best of their orchard fruit, starting in late May and available for pre-order now. Highlights include Golden Sweet apricots, Flavor King pluots, and the farm’s famous Cal Red peaches. Organic Mixed Fruit boxes start at $31 for a three-pound box; a Summer Sampler Organic Fruit Club starts at $365 for seven shipments of three-pound boxes, at FrogHollow.com
