🍁🍂 Fall Harvest 🍂🍁

During the fall season, FreshPoint Dallas stocks a variety of fall decor items to help customers create the perfect seasonal atmosphere. From gourds, pumpkins, specialty pumpkins, hay bales, corn stalks, and ornamental corn, many of these items are used to decorate for fall events and celebrations.

For those looking to cook, the smaller “pie” pumpkins are perfect—they’re grown specifically for their sweet, dense flesh, ideal for pies and other seasonal dishes. These fall items are only available during this seasonal window and are sourced from growers in Texas and Colorado, ensuring fresh, high-quality products for all your fall needs.

Why is this time of year so important to our industry?

During the annual field transition, fall weather can be erratic as warm and cool temps alternate while the season changes...and this will have an effect on produce in the field.

Our QA team is in the field inspecting what makes the cut and keeping us all in the loop via the FreshPress.

Persimmons are luscious, colorful, and packed with fall flavor — a perfect ingredient to elevate seasonal menus. 🍂⁠

Chefs can slice them fresh for salads, roast them to intensify their natural richness, or purée them into sauces, dressings, and desserts. Their silky texture and bright, honeyed notes pair beautifully with warm spices, creamy cheeses, and savory proteins.⁠

A simple way to add color, depth, and a touch of elegance to any fall dish. 👨‍🍳
