Santa Cruz, Calif.-based Awe Sum Organics will keep customers supplied with high-quality organic table grapes for loading on both coasts during the winter months, said David Posner, president and CEO.
The company will source grapes from northern Peru during the first part of the season and finish the program in the south, allowing for a steady, four-month supply from mid-December through early April, he said.
“Our growers’ organic vineyards in northern and southern Peru combine to provide a full supply all winter long of high-quality red, green and black organic seedless grapes that are all International Fruit Genetics varieties,” Posner said.
“We also offer red globe grapes at much lower pricing than our seedless varieties for value-conscious organic consumers.”
Both Awe Sum Organics’ growers use the company’s patented method for improving bud break in table grapes that is 100% organically approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Organic Program, he said.
“Our growers use our cutting-edge BioFlora Organic fertilization program for organic table grapes,” Posner added.
