Avocados Ripen Off the Tree

Hand picked California Hass avocados
Fresh, responsibly grown produce from a family farm in north county San Diego.

Avocados are unique in that they ripen once they’re off the tree.
At this point, the thing is rock hard. You can practically use it as a pestle for your mortar, or even a weapon for self-defense. Have you ever dropped an unripe avocado on your toes? Oy, it’s not pleasant. You can speed up the ripening process by placing your avocados in a paper bag, which helps them ripen sooner by trapping the natural off-gas that they generate (an odorless, tasteless, active plant hormone called ethylene).

Avocados are climacteric fruits (right up there with apples and bananas), meaning they start to ripen off the tree through a process of ethylene production, which occurs when starch converts to sugar. This stage of climacteric signals the peak of ripeness for an avocado.

If you want to speed it up even more, you can stick an apple or banana inside the bag (or any other ethylene-producing fruit, such as peppers, peaches, tomatoes… whatever you have on hand).



The Farm On Wilkes Road

We’re the Farm on Wilkes Road. A third generation, single family farm in North San Diego County. Our passion is for high quality, nutrient dense produce that not only helps our customers live a healthier life, but also promotes a healthier earth. We’re intentionally diverse, so as to create a healthy ecosystem for our plants to grow in a balanced environment that is more likely to be resistant to disease and pests. We also utilize chickens and sheep to help cultivate our land. We serve our local community, here is southern California, with fresh produce, and we even ship our avocados and citrus anywhere in the US.
