FROM ORCHARD TO TABLE: PEAR-FECTLY DELICIOUS!
Pears come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and are a good source of dietary fiber, antioxidants, and several vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, potassium, and vitamin K. The fiber in pears can aid in digestion and promote gut health.
It’s worth noting that pears are unique among fruits as they need to be picked when they are still firm and ripen off the tree. This allows them to reach their optimal texture and taste. Some popular pear varieties include Santa Maria, Abate, Packham’s Triumph.
