It's not just you. With stone fruit, sometimes the line between a rock and the fruit version of Jabba the Hutt can be a day or two.

Since peaches are one of the most fragile items we deliver, we urge you to have a plan for them. If you want to eat them soon, keep them on the counter so they ripen faster. If you're planning to wait, keep them in the fridge so that they stay fresh longer.

Little actions like how you store stone fruit can have a big impact on how much food you waste at home. Tag a friend who can relate to the stone fruit struggle!

Wasting nuts is nuts! Here's how to avoid food waste and get the most out of our best-selling Imperfect nuts:⁣⁣⁣

🤎 Roasting almonds in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes makes their flavor sweeter and more complex.⁣⁣⁣
🤎 Pecans have a shorter shelf life due to their high fat content, so store them in the fridge to keep them fresh longer.⁣⁣⁣
🤎 If you soak your cashews in water and then blend them with your favorite herbs and spices, you’ll end up with delicious vegan cashew cream.⁣⁣⁣
🤎 Pair walnuts with your favorite fruit and cheese in a salad for some bittersweet contrast.⁣⁣⁣

The @lapromisefund provides Los Angeles students with resources to help nourish success in college, career, and life. Since COVID-19 began, 80% of the South L.A. families they serve have lost of all their income. As a result, the number of families they served out of their food pantry doubled from 150 to 300, and they went from distributing food once a week to three times a week. They're now giving away about 10,000 pounds of food each week to nourish students and their families.

We're honored to support their important work with a grant from our Feeding Change Fund, which is now devoted to supporting emergency food distribution efforts in response to the COVID-19 crisis.

Leave a comment below to let our friends at @lapromisefund know what great work they're doing!
