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!

Yum! I would love to try any of the fruit, but mostly the kiwis and pears! After growing up in Florida my whole life, I definitely took for granted the fruit selection that was available 365 days a year:(
I would love to try that pineapple! That would hit the spot for this Iowa girl right now…it is cold here!!
Pineapple! I love fresh pineapple and that one you have cut up looks delicious! Like you said, fruit candy!
Would love to cut into a FRESH pineapple!!! The winter months don’t bring many good options for fresh fruit.
I’ve never had a Harry and David pear- would love to try! The pineapple also looks delicious!
I loooove pineapple, but I would be super excited to try papaya!
Pineapple!!! There is nothing more delicious than fresh pineapple.
yumm I would LOVE to try the pineapple! I live in the Midwest and it is so hard to find good, fresh fruit this time of year!!
The pineapple and mangoes! It is snowing where I live and hard to get delicious fresh fruit like this. This would be such a treat!
I would love to try the pears!!
I’ve been wanting to try the famous Harry and Davis pears for awhile! I’m on a bug pear kick lately.
The pears sound amazing!! I also love pineapple and papaya!
I would love to try the pears – I’ve heard how delicious they are, but I’ve never tried them.
i would love this basket as a gift to my parents. they just took me on a wonderful vacation, and while i could never fully repay them, this would certainly help! 🙂
I would be most excited about the Pears- I swear good quality pears are really hard to find in grocery stores! I would probably use it for my bible study girls. I used to make brownies or cookies every week, but we’re all typical girls and trying to be healthy, so this would be perfect!
My pick would be the apples! I moved away from Washington State last May and I swear the apples up there taste soo much better! Oregon is a beautiful place. Glad you got to experience it. 🙂
I would love to try their pinapplr and pears!
I’m excited to try the pineapple since you raved about it!!
I would LOVE to send the basket to my mom 🙂 She loves fruit and thinks of it as “candy” too!! So I know that she would love and truly appreciate a basket of delicious, high quality fruit!!! 🙂
As much as I’d like to keep it- I would give it to my sister as a “Congratulations” on her new job! Plus, she lives down the street so I can always steal a piece!
Papaya and mango! I love papaya and I love Harry &david!!
Pears seem to be a special treat, so I would be most looking forward to slicing into those babies!!
I’m not going to lie, I’ve never had fresh papaya before, but now I’m curious to try it!!
I’ve never had a fresh papaya before, so I’m most excited to try that.
I’ve never had fancy fruit before! 🙂 I would love to try the pineapple… my son’s favorite!
The pears FO SHO! Yum!
Wow, they all look so delicious! I would eat the pears immediately, closely followed by the pineapple :).
I am most excited for the pears! Whenever I see you eat on the your blog, they look so crisp and delicious! Really hope I win this!
I am most excited to try the pears because you have mentioned how yummy they are several times on the blog
The pineapple looks so delicious! Especially now in the winter months.
Melt-in-your-mouth pears, my absolute favorite!!! 🙂
That pineapple looks SO GOOD!! My husband and I would have this basket gone in probably about a day, we love fruit! 😀
OMG the pineapple is amazing!! I have sent these baskets to my aunts and uncles for years! They are the perfect gift since they don’t need anything and love fresh fruit!
I’d love to eat them all!! My husband loves pears.. so I would be excited to get those for him!
I would love to taste the papaya! I had it once in Mexico and wasnt a fan, but I was told that I needed to try “good” papaya! I’m sure H&D’s are delish!
Mama needs some good avocado!
Nothing beats an amazing pear, such a delicious fruit!! I live up north and the (expensive) fruit selection this time of year is awful. I’d love a basket of fresh fruit to brighten up my meals!
I have always wanted to try the pears!!!
I would love the fresh pineapple ~ looks amazing! The basket is very nice, too 🙂
I can’t tell you the last time I had a great pear! Definitely excited for that.
The pears! All i’ve been hearing about lately is how amazing their pears are!
I would love to send this to my mom for her birthday this month! she loves pears!!
The pears! Have heard rave reviews 🙂
since you rave about the pears, I’ll say I most want to try the pears….but I LOVE papaya!
The pineapple! It’s my favorite fruit of all time, I can’t get enough fresh pineapple.
I’d love to try the pears everyone raves about!!
The golden pear of course!! I love Harry and David’s and I would be so very excited to receive this basket!
I have been on a major fruit kick lately, but the papaya in particular I would love to try! I always see them in the grocery store, but have not bought any….yet!
There isn’t a ton of quality produce around where I live, so it all looks good to me. But that pineapple–YES! I am a huge pineapple fan and that looks delicious!
Most excited about the pears since I’m going through a wonderful Anjou phase right now! And I have not had fresh payapa (only the dried kind covered in sugar) so it would be nice to try the real thing!
