Champlain is currently harvesting D'Anjou pears, which are sweet and juicy, and will store well.
To ripen, store in a paper bag at room temperature.
For long term storage, keep in the fridge.
Bill and Andrea at Champlain Orchards are committed to ecological practices and are Eco-Apple certified. Due to the challenges of our Northeast climate, organic certification of apples and pears is incredibly difficult. Their fruit is never sprayed; only in the flowering stage are the trees treated using Integrated Pest Management to cut down on the risk of scab. No chemical pesticides are used on the orchards.
