Harvesting takes place over a period of about six weeks in September and October.  The color change to orange is prompted by chill.  As the leaves lose their green color and the fruit brightens, the grove becomes a picturesque glow of orange.

It is sweet and delicious when it has become orange to orange-red in color and is still firm.  The traditional us of the FUYU is to eat it out of hand (some say it tastes like and almond-flavored peach).  After harvest, the FUYU will stay firm two to three weeks if kept at room temperature and will gradually soften. It can be eaten hard like and apple or after they soften.

Shipping begins at first ripening and continues until we are sold out...which usually happens very early.
