Produce that inspires… knowledge.
Our passion for produce and drive to share knowledge across the chain is one of our biggest differentiators at Earl’s Organics.
WILD RIVER RED KIWIS
California Wild River Kiwis are in season! Now harvesting red, green and gold Kiwis. Red Kiwis are sweeter than green with berry notes of strawberry or raspberry with a slight tang. They have a delicious creamy texture. Grown along the Yuba River in the fertile Sacramento Valley.
FLORAL QUINCE
Quince has very hard and bumpy green/yellowish skin that looks like a cross between a pear and an apple. But beware! Do not try to bite into it like an apple, the tart and astringent flesh demands to be cooked before eating.
SUBTROPICAL KIWANO HORNED MELON
Kiwano Horned Melon taste like a mix of cucumber, kiwis and bananas when ripe. The fruit will have an orange rind and give slightly to gentle pressure when ripe.
WARREN PEAR
The Warren is a gorgeous russeted juicy pear with a melting mouth feel.. The skin turns a golden yellow as it ripens and can develop a pretty blush in full sun.
CALIFORNIA KEITT MANGOES
California Keitt mangoes are super juicy and sweet with almost no stringy fibers and a small pit which means more fruit to eat. Don’t shy away from these green mangos because Keitts stay green even when ripe.
HEINKE CONCORD GRAPES ARE SPECIAL
Heinke Family Farm in Paradise, (northeast of Chico in the Sierra Foothills) specializes in Concord grapes. These are the last organically grown commercial Concords grown in the U.S. The coveted Concord Grapes are highly aromatic with a floral flavor.
GRAVENSTEIN APPLES, A LOCAL FAVORITE
Gravenstein Apples are a local favorite out of Sebastopol grown by Johnny Appleseed from Solana Gold. It is one of the first California apples to be harvested and hints of fall around the corner.
PASSION FRUIT
Passion Fruit are ripe and ready to eat when they start to wrinkle. Cut in half, scoop out and eat the pulp and seeds! Pairs well with smooth and buttery Crespo Ataulfo Mangoes.
TUTTI FRUTTI HEIRLOOM TOMATOES
For over 30 years Chris Cadwell from Tutti Frutti has specialized in beautiful streaked, striped and unique shaped heirloom tomatoes. Cherokee Purple, Vintage Wine, Brandywine and Persimmon are a few of the incredibly flavorful varieties grown.
