CALIFORNIA MATURITY RELEASE DATES FOR 2007- 2008

HASS >4.75 oz. 01/16/08 - PINKERTON >7.5 oz. 01/11/08 - REED June 08
Early in the season avocados will take six to fourteen days to ripen.
Late in the season they'll take about five days.
 That's because early in the season the oil content in an avocado
is on the low side, whereas late in the season the oil content is higher.
Avocado Express delivers the best Avocados in the world right to your door, fresh from
Vista DeLuz Ranch. Located in North San Diego County, the heart of Southern California's agriculturally rich avocado growing area, we produce some of the tastiest California Avocados on the market. We fertilize using organic compost and organic fish fertilizer....There are NONE better.

You are buying direct from the ranch, rather than through a middlemen (packers, store, etc) where avocados are subjected to gassing to preserve freshness..

Your avocados are picked fresh from the tree when we receive your order and in your hands in 2-3 days; this provides for optimum freshness.

"It's just like having the Farmers Market delivering to your door".

Our promise is to provide you the opportunity to enjoy the most delicious, nutritious California Avocados at the lowest possible price. Free of any synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides or fungicides...

We don't ship in fancy printed boxes and our packing materials are 100% bio-degradable and recyclable.

Depending on variety and size, each shipment box contains an average of 10 or more, hand selected Hass, Reeds, Pinkertons or a combination of these California Avocados depending on the season.

Our avocados are guaranteed no more than one day off the tree at the time of shipping, with zero refrigeration time. This, along with gentle handling, ensures the very highest in quality and freshness.

Remember, the Aztecs believed avocados have an aphrodisiac power..who are we to argue with that? You be the judge. Order today and let us know.

Happy Customers

Dear Team!

The avocados have arrived perfectly. They do take time to ripen, but that is not a
problem. We wait patiently and are thrilled with the flavor of each avocado.

What a gift, to receive fresh avocados from Avocado Express, knowing they have been
picked close to the day of shipping and have not been gassed.
We like supporting a business which has integrity and your product is ideal for our
health and well being.

Many thanks,
Anne and Jimmy Crumpacker

"Absolutely perfect Avocados, looked beautiful, tasted fabulous."

Katherine Magistrale

Overall I was completely satisfied with the shipping, quality and quantity of the avocados. To my surprise they did not all ripen at the same time. The ripening took
place over one week to 10 days which was perfect. The avocados were rich, creamy
and packed with flavor. Absolutely no comparison to store bought avocados even
though at times the store offers a discounted price they do not offer the rich creamy
flavor.

The avocados are fantastic! AS close to perfect as nature would allow. We use the big ones cut in half and stuffed with small bay-shrimp, Tabasco and lemon!

Tom Biesek

===============

You wanted feedback: well, the avocados got here in a flash (ordered Monday eve, got here Thurs in NYC!), and though the box looked a little banged around, the packing was excellent and the avos seem just fine. And I thought I was getting 10 but there's far more in there! Excellent! I will have to share the wealth with friends.

Thanks--
