The Fruit Company specializes in gourmet, handmade fruit gift baskets fresh from our orchards in beautiful Hood River, Oregon. Our roots extend back to 1942, when Roy Webster founded Webster Orchards and began delivering extraordinary pears and apples to the Hood River Valley of northern Oregon. RoyÕs grandsons, Scott and Addison, grew up in the family business of growing fruit. Their DadÕs love for growing fruit and the family business was an inspiration. After leaving the valley to pursue their academic and professional careers, they returned with the same vision of expanding the Webster Orchard venture. Today The Fruit Company owns over 600 acres of fruit trees and does much of its business through online orders at thefruitcompany.com, compared to their grandfatherÕs first mail-order catalog. While receiving outstanding attention from Oprah WinfreyÕs ÒOÓ Magazine and the top consumer reporting magazine, The Fruit Company is also one of the top 15 growing companies in Oregon and part of Internet RetailerÕs Top 50 ÒBest of the Web.Ó Our goal remains unchanged: Bring the Nation the World's Finest Fruitª. We welcome you to visit our website and make someone smile with a fresh fruit gift.
