Pear Ripening

Pear Ripening

California pear farmers take care to pick pears at a point when they have plenty of sugar, but they're still green. Bartlett pears actually won't ripen on the tree, which means they can be shipped without damaging the fruit. Once you bring home a California pear, you can expect to enjoy a ripened juicy pear within a few days.
