Happy Friday! How about a giveaway to kick off your Friday morning?
If you adore high-quality fruit, today’s giveaway will be right up your alley.
Back in October I had the honor of touring the incredible Harry & David orchards in Medford, Oregon with a handful of other bloggers. It was a truly unforgettable trip and I fell in love with the company, their delicious food and beautiful Oregon!
I’ve stayed in touch with the folks at Harry & David and was awfully excited when one of their incredible gift baskets showed up at my doorstep last Saturday.
The basket was the company’s Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe and I immediately pulled all of the different kinds of delicious fresh fruit out of the basket to check out the goods!
As of this morning, Ryan and I have made our way through 90 percent of the basket and were, once again, impressed with the high quality of the fruit Harry & David delivered. Every single piece of fruit was blemish-free and full of flavor.
Naturally the company’s pears deserve a lot of praise, but I was particularly impressed with the quality of the mango, kiwi and pineapple in this basket!
I swear this stuff is like fruit candy. So sweet!
As for the gift basket itself, you better believe I kept it. We’re now using it as a pretty way to store towels.
And now here’s your chance to win your own Harry & David Fresh Fruit Basket Deluxe!
In the basket:
- 3 Royal Riviera Pears
- 4 Apples
- 2 Kiwi
- Papaya
- Pineapple
- Baby Bananas
- 2 Limes
- Avocado
- Mango
To enter this giveaway, please leave a comment below, telling me what fruit you’re most excited to try in the basket, or, if you’d like to send the basket to someone else as a surprise, please comment telling me who you’d send it to and why. I will randomly select a winner on Monday morning.
Good luck!

The pears and pineapple, but also the mango!! So yummy in my tummy 🙂
Papaya..and Im too selfish to give it to anyone else!
I would LOVE to try a papaya because I’ve tried all the other fruits and I LOVE all fruits including bananas! If I won it, I’d either keep it and eat on it or probably most definitely give it to my mamaw in the nursing home. She loves certain fruits including bananas. I think that would be a nice surprise for her. Lift up her spirits. 🙂
That is a beautiful basket of fruit! I would probably end up keeping it for myself since I love all of the fruit in there.
I’d be most excited for the pears! I’ve never had them from there, but have always heard how crazy good they are!!
On a side note, I LOVE your yellow towels!!!
I am a pineapple freak!! Freshly cut pineapple just cannot be beat. Yum! 🙂
I would LOVE the mango to add to my morning fruit smoothie!
I’d send it to my boyfriend–he’s been on a healthier diet in the new year and so far doing great!
I’ve never had papaya so I would definitely look forward to that! Also the pears because they are my favorite!
I’d love to send it to my friend whose moving to a new city as a little housewarming gift! 🙂
I would love to give this basket to a friend who has been down and out lately! All of the fruits look delicious! 🙂
I have never had papaya, so I would love to try it!
I’d love to send it to my friend whose moving to a new city as a little housewarming gift!
Kiwi sounds so good right now! And I’d love adding pineapple to my smoothies!
Harry & David Pears are my absolute favorite! When I was little my Grandmother used to slice them for us and have us eat them with a spoon as a “special treat!”
My fiance and I are OBSESSED with pineapple .. it’s one of the few fruits I can get my meat and potatoes future husband to eat..
I’ve never tried an H&D pear, so I’d love to share some with my family!
Yum! I’d send it to my parents as a little winter pick-me-up.
I am most excited to try papaya! I’ve never had one before!
I love all fruit – except mangos because I’m allergic – but I’d gladly give the mango to my friend while I devoured the rest!
the pears! I have heard so much about them! But that pineapple looks quite delish as well! (:
I would love to try the mango and papaya! My children love fruit and I know they would be so excited!
Harry and David fruit is the best! I haven’t had any in a few years and would love winning this basket to enjoy some again!
I’ve wanted to try the Harry and David pears forever!
Baby bananas!! How fun. Glad Sadie is doing well
Love the fruit basket! I would love to try the pears!
All of it my daughter and I are total fruit lovers!
ahhhh pineapple! I would send it to my mom who could use a little cheering up 🙂
LOVE Harry & David. I would send it to my Mom & Dad just to say thanks for being awesome parents. They love the company as well and I know they’d enjoy this!
I’d love this basket! My fiance and I are trying to eat healthier, and having some fresh fruit to snack on would definitely help! I haven’t had kiwi in soooo long, so I would be super excited to try it! Oh and the pears, yumm!
I would be so excited for the pears! I recently found a fabulous recipe for a baked pear with vanilla bean dessert and it would be amazing to try it with pears of this quality! Woo fruit!
I can’t pick just one!!! I’m going with all of the above.
Kiwi! I’ve always loved it but have never had any luck trying to find decent ones at the store and always end up buying awful/unripe ones. Of course I’d be super thrilled with the avocado too-so addicted to those things!
I love all fruit so this is right up my alley… especially mangos! I would love to win!
I have to say I would be most excited to try the pears… I’ve never had a Harry & David pear, and after reading all your posts I feel as if I haven’t lived! FINGERS CROSSED 🙂
The pears!!! I keep seeing you write about them, they look heavenly.
I’d love to try the Harry and David pears everyone is always raving about. I’ve been loving pears lately and can just imagine how good these are.
That pineapple looks incredible, so I would like to win the basket to get one of those!
Avocado!!! I’d eat avocado at every meal if I could. I’d be sharing this lovely basket with my 4 yr old son and 3 yr old daughter
YUMMM! The pineapple looks so delicious! I’m super curious to try their avocado. I would love to give this to my mom as a thank you for letting me move back home after graduating college this past December. 🙂
Mmmmmm Mango, YUMMERS! I also have never tried one of their pears so I really want to try those too! I love fresh fruit!
Ahhh I can’t tell you how excited I am that you’re doing this giveaway! I have never had a Harry & David gift basket so I am dyingggg to try the pears! Although your pictures make me want to try the mango and pineapple as well!
My 45 year old sister is pregnant with twins. She’s had a difficult time and this would totally cheer her up! I’m sure she would eat all the fruit. LOL!
I’d love to try the pears!
I would love to try the pears!
Pineapple! I’m a pig and will eat the whole thing in one sitting.
Mango! I would share it with my sister so I wouldn’t hog all the fruit!
I’d love to try the mango!!
I would definitely steal some, but give most of it to my Dad. He’s trying to make a lifestyle change with his diet, and has been juicing and eating more healthy overall. This would be PERFECT for his fruit juice. We love Harry & David pears, but have never tried their mangoes or apples!
Hello Julie!
Love that you are giving away fruit.. it looks so delicious in pictures. My favorite would definitely be the pears, and I would also be excited for the basket seeing as you made it so useful in your home and would love to do the same in mine! I have celiac disease so the fruit would just really be great as I’m allergic to most giveaway food items generally, fruit is safe =) Hope Sadie is doing well, and hope this message finds you well!
