Thanks Naumes Fruit Gifts
for the yummy fresh pears!

Naumes hand picks and packs their finest gourmet pears and deliver them fresh in their signature gift box. Plus – every Naumes Fruit Gift gives back: Through their Donate Fruit™ program, they will match every gift you send, pound for pound, with a donation of fresh fruit to a food bank.

The Naumes family has a deep concern with addressing the problem of hunger in America. Over the last seven years, has donated more than 10 million pounds of fruit to local food banks in partnership with Feeding America.

Need a Reason to Eat More Fruit?

Here are just a few benefits of eating fruit, courtesy of the USDA:

“Most fruits are naturally low in fat, sodium, and calories. None have cholesterol.”
“Fruits are important sources of many nutrients, including potassium, dietary fiber, vitamin C, and folate (folic acid).”
Including fruit as a staple in a healthy diet helps to maintain healthy blood pressure, lower blood cholesterol and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes.

To get the maximum health benefits, it’s best to eat whole fruit. Juices and dried fruit tend to be higher in sugar.
So, there you have it.

Family-owned and operated for over 100 years, the Naumes tradition of growing quality fresh fruit continues with a new generation. Continuing the family legacy of growing quality fresh fruit, the family is working hand-in-hand to prepare for the next generation to lead the business and move the industry forward. The next leaders are a set of triplets who, like previous and current generations, learned our trade from the ground up, becoming versed in all aspects of the business including growing, harvesting and marketing the delicious, fresh fruit.

Naumes Family

We believe that farming is more than a business or occupation. It is the great responsibility of being a guardian of the land to feed the people of the world.

We are a stable and secure American business that has been around for 100 years. In these chaotic times, that is cause for peace of mind.

Our orchards are located in Oregon, California and Washington. We have centralized packing operations in Oregon, where the primary source of pears are commercially grown. We also grow apples, cherries, cling peaches and specialty fruit such as persimmons, Asian pears and walnuts. We have developed diverse packing styles to suit the changing demands of today’s market.

Now here's the
really exciting part...

Thanks to Naumes Fruit Gifts I get to give away one Red Pear & Comice Mix Gift box to a lucky winner!
