When the temperatures start to dip, you may also see some frost damage on artichokes. The outer leaves look like they have a sunburn: the leaves turn a bit brown, flake, and peel. Learn why that may not be such a bad thing, and how to embrace them in all their "Frost-Kissed" glory in our Produce 101: Artichokes
Navigating the armor of artichokes can be tricky. Dan gets to the heart of the matter in this edition of Produce 101: Artichokes.
The brief, fleeting Honeybell season is upon us. 🍊 Some growers only half-jokingly recommend putting a glass under your chin when you eat a Honeybell to catch the juice that might spill out.
But, what is it about the Honeybell that makes it so special that a majority of the fruit goes to the gift basket market? Click to read more about this delicious winter citrus.

Everyone say HI 👋 to Frank!
He has been a member of our FreshPoint Team for 9 years!
Starting as a driver, he moved up the ranks quickly to become a Shop Steward, then Transportation Supervisor and is now our Transportation Manager.
We think he is a great example of our Value of Integrity. We were founded by a group of passionate leaders who worked with integrity to shape an industry. They put their futures in each other’s hands, and with this trust, they were able to spark magic. Today, that same integrity and mutual respect continues to push us to reach new heights.
Frank has built strong relationships with our drivers, our sales team, and many of our customers. He credits his time as a driver as the reason he has been successful as a supervisor. His understanding of our driver's needs and our customers’ expectations will make him even more successful and appreciated. You can call on Frank for anything and he will answer. He is a pleasure to work with!
Fun fact: Vans are his favorite brand of shoes. He owns 60 pairs! 👟 👟
Frank, thank you for all you do for us every day, and to help make FreshPoint a great place to be. Let’s all give him a 👋 #peoplepassionproduce
