GEM avocados

$52.00

GEM avocados from BalMar Farms in Fallbrook, harvested by me and shipped to you. I will pack 9-11 into a box, for a total of about 6 pounds of avocados. Every one should ripen perfectly or I’ll send you another box. These avocados are clean, as the trees at BalMar Farms have never been sprayed. The land around the avocado trees are not sprayed with herbicides either.

Shipping is on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 23 and 24.

Shipping is included in the price for all California locations.

Description

GEM is a cream-of-the-crop avocado that was selected by Gray Edward Martin while working for the University of California avocado breeding program.

The avocado is slightly larger and rounder than Hass on average, and with a slightly larger and pointier seed. The skin of GEM is a bit thicker than Hass, and it has a shimmering speckle to it when unripe. As the fruit ripens, it turns black. The texture and flavor of GEM are world class. It is one of my favorite eating avocados, with a meaty texture and a nutty flavor.

To learn more about the GEM avocado variety, see my post, “The GEM avocado tree: a profile.”
