We recently received a crate of organic fruit from The FruitGuys. Have you heard of them? The FruitGuys are known for bringing fresh seasonal fruit {brain food} from local farms to thousands of American businesses and homes across the country. Fantastic, no?
The FruitGuys work with local farmers to help them succeed and achieve green practices. During peak season 70-90% of the fruit mixes offered by The FruitGuys are locally grown within the regions they serve {East Coast, Midwest, West Coast} and go from the farm to home or office within 3-4 days.
My family recently received a large crate of fruit from the FruitGuys. Luckily, we are huge consumers of fruit, because there was a lot of it. {I used some for my surprise valentine’s brunch for Mr. Sweet Greens and Eben} Our crate carried juicy apples, pears, kiwis, oranges, tangerines, bananas and blueberries. All of the fruit came packaged in an Earth friendly crate made from recycled cardboard and soy based ink, which also protected the fruit perfectly.
I think the FruitGuys is a fantastic idea for someone who owns a small or large business that wants to provide their employees with a healthy brain snack each day. I have worked in many large business offices in my day, it would have been nice if fresh fruit was an option at our Monday morning meetings, instead of bagels or donuts. Don’t you agree?
Also, the FruitGuys have organic fruit crates that would be perfect for your family. You can purchase either a 16, 25 or 50 piece FruitCrate. How fantastic would it be to have one delivered to your door?
The FruitGuys have been so lovely to give ONE of my readers a 50 serving organic FruitCrate.

This is great. My favorite is the bananas. But I love all fruits.

Oranges are my favorite

i love apples, they are one of my favorites! I can take them anywhere! There’s a “super star design” with the seeds inside for the kids to see, when you slice the apples “like a magician”, once horizontally, in the middle and all the way through!
I would send this prize to my college son, for him and his friends to share, on his snowy campus!

my favorites are kiwi and strawberry 🙂
I love ALL fruits. But huge red delious apples, bananas, navel oranges, and mulberries are my favorites. You cant find mulberries in the grocery stores. I usually get mine from my old house that my son lives in now. There are several mulberry trees growing there. If you dont know what a mulberry tastes like, just imagine a big juicy blackberry, only sweeter (and in a tree lol).
I would LOVE to win this.

I love all kinds of fruit, but pineapple, apples, grapes, and strawberries are my favs! I try every summer to support local farmers by purchasing most of my produce from local farmers markets or road side vendors.

Our family loves fruit, especially mangoes, apples, bananas and pears. Every morning I give my son fruit and cereal for breakfast, and he tends to prefer the fruit. He’s 1 yrs old, and eats a lot of diced up fruit, fresh if we have any at the time! Winning this contest would make my little son so happy! Thank you for such a great offer!

why would i like to win a fruit basket
to start with i am originally from boston and now living in tx have been here 9 yrs and unlike the majority of folks here my family and i love fruits and veggies but if you do not have a car which we dont yo are pretty much subjected to certain stores as there bus company is really slow and does not frequent lots of areas and even though this is the 7th largest city there is only one major grocery chain excluding target and wal mart and the heb super market by my home produce is limited on selection and does look all that great thank you sherry smith
