It is an exciting time of year, as pears are the first enticing top fruit of the season. Our fruit has great timing, peaking at the start of the springtime, a lot of our customers like to do early spring promotions with them." says Awe Sum Organics CEO &amp; founder, David Posner.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">“Our organic pears come from one of the very best producing regions in the world, the Rio Negro Valley of Argentina, optimal for pears more than any other tree fruit. The fact that it’s a rather dry climate with perfect weather for growing pears, as well as a bountiful water supply from the river which flows through the valley, the high mesas on both sides provide protection from insect pressure allowing for its recognition as a Fruit Fly Free Zone by the USDA, have all come together for perfect growing conditions for organic pears.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">The company is offering the Bartlett and Red Bartlett through mid-April, the D’Anjou, Autumn Bartlett, Packham, Beurre Bosc and Golden Bosc through June, and Abate Fetel through mid-May. The Bartlett varieties are enjoying popularity with consumers but the season is short so supplies are limited. The D’Anjou is a wonderful traditional variety that is beautiful, clean and stores well. The Packham has a creamy flesh and tantalizing fragrance. Boscs offer great storability and exceptional flavor, and the Abate Fetel is a fantastic, elegant looking variety that is highly prized in Italy. It is sweet, juicy and tender, with a uniquely delicious flavor.</p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href=" http://www.awesumorganics.com/who/about-us/" target="_new">Awe Sum Organics</a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
