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.
COLIMAN COMMUNITY CENTER FUNDED BY FAIR TRADE PREMIUM
October is Fair Trade Month. Earl’s Organic offers Fair Trade Bananas year-round. Buying Fair Trade products ensures that farm workers enjoy sustainable wages, safe working conditions and improves their community by collectively investing in social and business projects. $1 per every box of Coliman Bananas purchased goes to the Fair Trade Premium. Every purchase matters!
HOW THE FAIR TRADE PREMIUM WORKS
October is Fair Trade Month. A few extra cents paid by the consumer – the Fair Trade Premium - will allow for democratically chosen projects to become a reality in farm worker communities; whether it’s a bus for the High School students, dental services or a multipurpose room, this benefit will bring empowerment through decision making and project execution.
FUYU AND HACHIYA PERSIMMONS EAT DIFFERENTLY
Hachiyas and Fuyus are the two main commercial varieties of persimmons in the United States and are eaten very differently. Find out when and how to eat each variety.
OCTOBER IS FAIR TRADE MONTH
Earl’s carries Fair Trade fruits and vegetables throughout the year. Look for Fair Trade Avocados, Bananas, Melons, Pineapples, Tomatoes and more. Every purchase empowers farm workers to improve their communities by deciding as a collective, how and when to invest the Fair Trade Premium.

HELLO FALL!
Late summer produce is starting to wind down and now is the time of year to start making room for the wonderful bounty of Fall.
FRESH JUJUBES PACKED WITH VITAMIN C
Crisp and refreshing, with a delicate fig-and-caramel flavor, fresh jujubes provide more vitamin C than your average citrus fruit. Toss into a weeknight salad, swap out added sugar in baked goods for the subtle sweetness, or simply remove the pit and whir into a healthy fruit smoothie to go.
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.
KIWI BERRIES- POP AND GO SNACK
Kiwi Berries are a nutritional powerhouse and a healthy food source containing over 20 nutrients. They ripen at room temperature and are ready to eat when the skin turns a darker green, wrinkles and gently yields to touch. Similar to a kiwi they will be slightly acidic until ripe when they will be very sweet.
