Helping the local economy is not the only reason to buy fruit from
Utah. It is the knowledge that fruit from Utah is fresher and tastes
better than other fruit that can be found in the produce isle. This can
be attributed to many things such as shorter shipping time from the
orchard to the consumer.
Utah also has a longer growing season
that adds more of the good stuff in our fruit like more flesh in our
cherries and more flavor in our peaches. We like to think that Utah
fruit tastes better because it is grown in the high mountain valleys
just a little closer to the sun and watered with clean mountain water.
When
you buy Utah fruit it is comforting knowing where the food you eat has
been grown. Knowing that local people whom you can trust have carefully
tended to the orchards and fields producing product that has the
highest quality. So the next time you are looking for a healthy snack
look and ask for Utah fruit.
