Oneonta Starr Ranch Growers is focusing on its Red and Green Anjou pears for the holiday season. The fruit, which is presenting large size and excellent quality, is always a popular choice during the season's festivities. Oneonta has seen a great crop this year with promotable volumes just in time for abundant presentations in the produce aisle. Red Anjous present a sweet, crispy taste with a slight hint of spice, while the green are very sweet, with a nice, refreshing, juicy eating experience. Scott Marboe, Director of Marketing, tells AndNowUKnow, "Both pears are great for salads and perfect for adding holiday colors to the menu and the decor. It’s been a wonderful season for Anjous and we are looking forward to promoting with our retailer partners."<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">SunFed is currently wrapping up an outstanding fall melon deal and is transitioning into the winter season of its program.
