FRUIT PURÉES GREEN WILLIAMS PEAR PURÉE

Sweet, textured pear purée. We chose the Green Williams for its ability to retain its whole range of aromas, even when puréed. This means it has a delicious, sweet flavor profile, with this summer pear’s characteristic texture.

Our pears taste so excellent because they are grown on the sediments of the Rhône.

- Nicolas Buard, pear farmer and irrigation manager for the area

Pears protected by insects. Nicolas has developed true expertise, which means he can grow pears with no pesticide residue. He allows vegetation to grow on the orchard so that predators of pests that attack pear trees can live there and protect the trees. That means he treats his crops two times less compared to conventional agriculture.

Nicolas’ farm is located on an island between the two arms of the Rhône river, forming a perfect micro-climate to grow his pears. The trees are fed by the sediment in the soil, which is low in stones and retains water well.
