Serendib Farms'
Tropical Avocado Box
Shipped Directly From Serendib Farms
Important Information About
Tropical Avocado Box
Your fruit may arrive ripe and ready to eat. Although they could take up to 10 days to ripen. The avocados are ready to eat if they give slightly when you apply gentle pressure.
As needed, store and allow the avocados to ripen on the counter at room temperature, as refrigeration will stop their ripening. Once ripe, avocados will keep for 2-3 days in the refrigerator.
Slice the entire circumference of the avocado lengthwise. Apply gentle pressure as you twist each side apart in opposite directions. Remove the hard pit with a spoon or knife and discard. Either scoop the flesh out of the avocado or peel the dark skin off and enjoy!

Meet The Farm
Serendib Farms
Serendib Farms is a small, 10-acre farm located in Redland, Florida run by Wimal & Elita Suaris since 2009.
Embracing the intricacies of producing harder-to-grow and harder-to-find fruit, Serendib has been a tropical, ecological oasis and home to many of the rarest varieties of mangoes, avocados, longan, passion fruit and many other tropical crops. From Sri Lanka and the Philippines, Wimal and Elita share a life-long passion for the cultivation of unique and delicious produce.
Experience
There is a whole world outside of the typical Hass avocados you find at the store. Experience these classic tropical fall avocado varieties that are rare to find outside of their traditional growing regions.
Tasting Notes
These avocados have a range of flavors and textures. Many of them are “juicier” than typical Hass avocados. The Choquette and the Monroe have a delicate and juicy flesh. The Hall and Bernecker are nuttier and have a thicker flesh while still juicy and fruity. The Oro Negro has a rich and creamy flavor.
