Season Schedule

The chart below outlines variety is at their prime. Some of the avocado variety heirlooms produce every other year like the Furete, Nabal, Daily 11, and Lamb Hass. Regular crops every year are the Hass, Zuntanto, Samee and Pinkerton. We taste test varieties each month before shipping them to our customers to insure the best quality of each monthly shipment. Avocados are shipped straight from our family orchard to your doorstep every month. You simple choose how many avocados you want monthly and we pick, pack, and ship them that the same day.

We ship avocados all year long across across the United States. Listed below is all of our present varieties and their characteristics for you to better understand the fruit, tree, texture, and taste each has to offer.
