So there was a contest at work not too long ago where one of the prizes was a subscription to the fruit of the month club from Harry and Davids. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about it? Is it a good deal? I live alone so if it's designed for a family...that may be too much fruit... Just wondering about quality/quantity/variety... It looks like there's a plan for $80 for 3 months for one person... just curious.

Thanks in advance!!!!!

    You won it but you have to pay for it?

    If it is anything like the plants they sell it will suck.

    i'm not sure where you live, but in the bay area (and i think all over) there's something called "Farm Fresh To You" and they will deliver different boxes of fruits and veggies for various prices depending on how much you want. It's supposed to be incredible and comes straight from the nearby farms. My neighbor does it and I'm jealous and thinking about signing up.

    i love harry and david! we get the pears and cherries about three times a year. i've also had their salsa and chips, salmon and a few desserts. everything was delicious! very high quality! we have ordered lemon and lime tree from them too. i think they are a fantastic company. :) it may be more fruit than one person can eat though. if you win, you can always take the fruit to work and share.

    **editted to say: i believe in the past they have had a 'light' option that costs less and is less food. you might want to see if they still offer that.

    The Royal Riviera Pears are basically fruit from heaven. Seriously. Best. pears. ever.

    But they're also very expensive. Personally, I'd get involved in a CSA program before buying H&D fruit of the month club, but that's just me.

    You can also go direct to an H&D store and buy a case of in season fruit if you're looking to try it.
