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 pineapple in our 20 degree weather would make it feel like summer!
my 1 year old son loves avocados & bananas! It’s all about starting healthy eating habits while they are young!
I love all fruit, but I have to say I’d be most excited for the pineapple – it is my absolute favorite and your picture of it looking all nice, sliced and juicy made my mouth water =]
I have loved H&D pears forever! I am most excited about trying the mango – it’s my new favorite addition to tacos! 🙂
I work in a small office with 4 other women. We are all trying to lose the extra pounds with all the snack cakes constantly around us. This basket would be great to have at work! Thanks for your give a ways!
I’d love to send this to my sister and her husband! He has to have shoulder surgery this week and the basket of fresh fruit would be sure to cheer him up 🙂
Well as much as I love fruit, any and all fruit, I would send it to my parents. My parents are amazing (they also have started to eat much healthier!) have an anniversary coming up here soon! My mother loves avocados and my father’s favorite are pears and i know they would really enjoy the basket.
This fruit basket looks amazing. I would love to send the fruit basket to my boyfriend. He’s in medical school and doesn’t always have time to eat the healthiest – I think this would help him out a lot! I would be especially excited to try the mango but pears are his favorite.
Great giveaway!!
I’ve heard a lot of good things about their pears, and the pineapple looks delicious!!
Can you believe I’ve never had a pear?! I would love to try those!
Mangos & baby bananas
That all looks delicious! I want to try the papaya and mango!
I love Harry and David! I would love to try the papaya; I bet H&D finds them at their best!
I would love to try the pears and pineapple :):) defiantly made me crave fresh fruit after seeing the photo of the diced pineapple ! Yummmmm
Pineapple – my favorite! It makes me feel like I’m on a beach somewhere in the Caribbean!
That pineapple looks amazing! I would definitely keep the whole basket to myself & devour it all!
The pineapple would be a new adventure for me!
The pears, because I’ve heard that those in particular are out of this world when gotten from Harry & David!
All of the fruit looks delicious!!! I’ve never experience Harry and David fruit so I’d love to try all of it! 🙂
THE PEARS!
My school only has really basic fruits during the winter – apples, oranges, bananas, apple sauce, canned peaches – so this would be HEAVENLY right now!

I would definitely be most excited to try the pineapple!
I would love to eat the pairs in the basket. Lately my new favorite sandwich is smoked turkey,Vernont cheddar cheese and grilled pear. So yummy!
The pears! I love pears and want to see what all the fuss is about. My girls love pineapple and will be over the moon to see fresh pineapple ready for the eating! Pick me, pick me!
Pineapple, love, love them!!!
The pears!
pears!! They’re the best!!!!!
I would seriously love to try the pears..my favorite!!
I’ve never had a Harry and David pear before, so I guess the pears!
I would love to try the pineapple, I LOVE everything I’ve tasted that comes from Harry & David!
I don’t think I could choose just one. I suppose I’d say the pineapple, since what we have in stores right now is pale yellow at best!
I’m most excited to try the pears! I never buy pears for myself because I usually end up buying the mealiest pears.
PINEAPPLE 🙂
i need to see what all the fuss is about with those pears! this would be awesome. nothing sounds better than “fruit candy”
I am a huge Mango fan so I would love to try Harry and David’s! Thank you for such a great giveaway. 🙂
I would love to try the pears!
I want to try the limes because they go really well with Mexican food. Pineapple is also delicious!
The pineapple looks so good!
I’d love to try the papaya! My husband and I ordered papaya for breakfast every day on our honeymoon in Hawaii, but we haven’t gotten to taste a really good one since then (almost 3 years ago!)
ooh! i’ve never tried a fresh papaya and would love to!!
Pineapple!!
I love their pears. I can only imagine how fabulous that pineapple is!!!
Pineapple!
I am definitely most excited about the papaya… I’ve never had it before and have always wanted to try it! Hope I get the chance!
Papaya…I’ve never tried it and would like to. Apparently, I need to try the pears, too. 🙂
The avocado! I miss being in Nicaragua and having fresh, wonderful avocado that we could just pick up off the ground.
Pineapple… Fresh pineapple reminds me of being on the beach in Jamaica this time last year instead of below 0 degree temps in Nebraska.
I would love to have some good papaya…it’s definitely not the right weather for it up here in the north!
Mango!!! It’s so hard to find good ones in the grocery store! Also – I’d secretly send a basket to my bestie because she lives so far away from me in CA and looooves fruit : )
Mangoes!!! They are so good, but I don’t get to have them very often. Baby bananas would be neat too, I don’t think I’ve ever tried them.
I love fresh fruit! I’ve never tried any of their fruit, but I’d especially like to try their pears.
