Our avocados are hand-picked at just the right moment, ensuring unbeatable flavour and freshness. Follow these ripening tips to enjoy them at their peak.
Fully Unripe
Bright green and firm to the touch? This avo needs more time. Keep it in the box or fruit bowl, away from the fridge and out of the sun.
Not Ripe
Still green, but still firm? Patience! It’s almost there, but not just yet.
Fully Ripe
Still green, but slightly soft, it's ready to eat! Worried they'll all ripen at once? Pop them in the fridge and they’ll stay perfect for a week or more.
In a hurry? Add a banana to your avo box or fruit bowl. Their natural ethylene speeds things up.
Once your avocados are ripe, pop them in the fridge. They’ll stay fresh for a week or more.
Bright green and firm avos should never go into the fridge. Let them soften and darken before chilling to extend their life.
Check the pick date and ripening chart on your box as a guide. Remember, local temperatures vary, so let colour and softness be your best judge.
With these tips and tricks, you’ll always be ready to make the most of every avocado, every time. Because with The Avo Tree, that perfectly ripe, creamy and yummy avo is just a slice away.
