We've taken the extra steps, or left some out rather, to bring you the best organic fruit possible. The fruit in this Club is grown, harvested and packed in accordance with the USDA National Organic Program. Because top quality, gourmet organic fruit is awesome. This Club starts with the Organic Fruit Gift Basket in place of the first month's fruit. You couldn't always get fresh fruit year-round-especially if you didn't live where it grew. That's why Harry and David found a way to ship the finest fruit all over the country with the Fruit-of-the-Month Club® Collections. A new favorite fruit handpicked and delivered fresh each month makes the perfect gift for anyone.
