“Canned and frozen fruits not only offer great nutrition, but they are inexpensive and convenient ways to make sure that we maximize the variety and number of fruit servings needed to protect our health.” -- American Institute for Cancer Research • Canned fruit offers great nutrition and is less expensive on a cost per serving basis than fresh fruit. Shelf-stable canned fruit is available year-round and arrives ready-to-eat and packaged in appropriate portion sizes. • Several university studies confirm that canned fruit is nutritionally comparable to fresh fruit.
The California peach industry consists of many generations-old family farms. Our average farmer grows 20 hectares of peaches. Our peaches are picked at the peak of ripeness and generally packed within 24 hours of picking.
