Are you starting to dream about orchards of fruit-laden tree branches? Our teams are busy at work, preparing our Asian Pear trees for just that in the growing season ahead! Twine knotted onto the ends of the tree limbs is used to pull them from a vertical position into a more horizontal stance. This process, called tree tie-down, is like raising the window shades in your home, allowing the sunlight to stream into the trees inner branches. This added sunlight makes for even healthier, more delicious, fruit. Click to watch a short video of our orchard team in action!

Make this a Mother's Day to remember by sending one of our gift boxes! Our Gourmet Gift Box includes a generous 9 oz. bag of our signature sweet and chewy Dried Asian Pears, a jar of savory Asian Pear Spread, and a complimentary bag of our favorite locally made pretzels, perfect for dipping. Add a wedge of a favorite local cheese to make a party platter Mom is sure to love. 

Or order our Deluxe Gourmet Gift Box. We'll send a bottle of our exceptional Aged Asian Pear Vinegar, delicious for dressing springtime salads, and two jars of Asian Pear Spread. Use one jar for dipping and the other to make barbecue sauce for a grilled meal no Mom can resist! Check out the delicious recipe below.

It's time to be outdoors, and that means grilling! Here's a delicious BBQ sauce with the added hint of Asian Pear from our delicious, sweet and savory spread. You're going to want to have this on hand to enjoy with outdoor meals all summer long!

This BBQ Sauce “pears” well with ribs, pork shoulder, and chicken!

2 tsp. Soy Sauce

¼ tsp. Onion Powder

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Place on stove top over Low-Medium heat. Stir consistently with a spoon or heat-resistant rubber spatula.
