Here’s Where You Come In!
Home Delivery:
The FruitGuys deliver fresh fruit and snacks straight to your home. You heard that right! In a time when so many of us are craving fresh, healthy produce and want to avoid a trip to the store, these folks are packing an array of fresh, farm-sourced fruit and healthy snacks, and bringing them straight to you. You can also send a box of fruit to a friend or loved one who doesn’t have access to produce. They deliver nationwide from 15 regional distribution hubs with local farm and supplier relationships.
Remote Staff Support:
If you’re an employer, consider their Remote Staff Delivery boxes for your staff who are working from home.
Nourish Our Heroes:
You can also contribute to their Fruit for Heroes Campaign, which is supplying hospitals, food banks and other charities with fresh fruit for the people who are bearing the brunt of the pandemic. So far, over 111,000 servings of fruit have been donated by people just like you.

By trying out The FruitGuys home delivery service, you can help support farmers and staff while getting something you love at the same time!
“Lester (CEO of Life's Abundance) and I met through The Tugboat Institute and realized how similar our world views of businesses were. As both an Evergreen and B-Corp business, we strive to bring delicious fruit and snacks to folks while also helping those in need and small farmers across America. I love the care that Life’s Abundance gives to their customers and we love to bring that same spirit and support to those who order our fruit.”
--Chris Mittelstaedt, The FruitGuys Founder/CEO
More Reasons To Support The FruitGuys:
Right now many supply chains are disrupted and it can be difficult to find the fruit that you want from online grocery delivery services or at the store.
The FruitGuys share values similar to ours as a people-first business that is in service of your health and happiness.
The FruitGuys Community Fund is their nonprofit, founded in 2012, to provide annual grants to small farms and agricultural nonprofits. They fund sustainability projects that have a positive impact on the environment, local food systems and farm diversity. They are about to announce their class of 2020 grantees.
The FruitGuys GoodWorks Program makes sure all their excess or imperfect fruit is donated to local food banks and charities each week — they’ve given more than 15 million servings of fresh fruit since 2000!
