Giving perishable gifts during the holidays is incredibly fun & unique!
Here are some tips from us to help in navigating any challenges.
If you are sending someone a box of fresh fruit, make sure to track the delivery and advise the recipient to bring it inside and open it as soon as possible.
If you are getting the fruit shipped to yourself to give in person, open the box and unpack the fruit box. You can re-pack it before you gift it to your loved one.
It's best to give the gift of fruit as soon as possible, as some fruits may ripen quickly.
For optimal ripening, fruits should be kept at a minimum temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit and require proper airflow.
