Tropical fruit calendar<\/div>\n
Months, growing areas and fruit to watch for.<\/div>\n
Sicilian tropical fruit is more delicate than citrus fruit: it is often harvested at a controlled stage of ripeness and allowed to finish ripening at home. Availability varies more and depends greatly on cultivar, microclimate, greenhouses, wind and temperatures.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Why customers love it<\/div>\n
Sicilian tropical fruit has one huge advantage: it comes from nearby.<\/div>\n
Mango, papaya, pitaya and avocado are usually associated with long journeys, very early harvesting and forced ripening. Sicilian production changes that picture: it does not make these fruits less delicate, but it shortens the distance and makes the most of local microclimates that now support remarkable crops. For the customer, it means enjoying exotic fruit with an Italian identity and a much stronger connection to where it is grown.<\/div>\n

Ragusa<\/div>\n
An ideal area for pitaya and tropical crops grown in controlled environments: warmth, light and agricultural expertise produce fruit with a distinctive profile.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
Giarre \/ Etna<\/div>\n
An excellent area for Kensington mango: the influence of the Ionian climate and volcanic soils gives the fruit a distinctive character.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n
Eastern Sicily<\/div>\n
Papaya, avocado and passion fruit have more variable availability, so we always recommend checking the actual harvest for the week.<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

After-delivery tip<\/div>\n
Not all tropical fruit should arrive \u201csoft\u201d.<\/div>\n
Unlike many citrus fruits, some tropical fruits may arrive while still firm. This is not a defect: it is often the best way to prevent damage in transit. Let them ripen at room temperature, check them every day and move them to the fridge only when they are ready. For avocado, mango and passion fruit, aroma and a slight softness are more useful signs of ripeness than colour.<\/div>\n
