Discover the World of Pomegranate Arils

  • Fresh Fruit Jewels: Pomegranate arils are the bright red jewels inside the pomegranate fruit. While they’re technically seeds, they’re also juicy, flavorful, and perfect for a healthy snack.
  • Sweet-Tart Sensations: Pomegranate arils have a unique sweet-tart taste. They’re crunchy flavor bombs that explode in your mouth and add a fun textural element to salads and side dishes.
  • Ready to Eat: Unlike whole pomegranates, pomegranate arils are ready to eat, no peeling required! They’re conveniently packaged for hassle-free snacking.
  • Harvested with Care: California farmers harvest pomegranates from September through December, and they’re best eaten fresh from the farm. Their season is over in a blink—so have a pomegranate party while you can!

The Flavor Tree Fruit Company represents more than 40 organic and conventional farms in California's central and southern San Joaquin Valley. Their farms grow juicy fruits like pomegranates, golden kiwis, more than a dozen varieties of cherries, and fabulous Verry Cherry plums (a plum-cherry cross).
