Grocery store pears may look pretty, but they generally lack flavor and nutrients. The stores buy in bulk and are selling pears that have already been in storage for over a year! In storage, pears lose nutrients and dietary fiber, which means they also lose flavor (yikes!). Antioxidant activity in pears also decreases over long periods of storage time.
This pear variety is grown just a few hours away from NYC. With such a super short travel time, there's no mystery behind how long your produce is being transported and where it's being stored; less travel time means more flavor! This farm grows a diverse variety of pears, apples, peaches, plums, and more to keep diverse nutrients in the soil that help maintain a healthy ecosystem, all while allowing us to enjoy new varieties of pears you won't find in the grocery store.
