How to Buy
Green mangos are shipped nationwide (excluding CA and AZ). We offer three different types: baby, soft-seed, and hard-seed.
The maturation process is influenced by
several weather factors (heat, rain, etc.) therefore dates provided are
approximate. Mangoes are shipped when they are at their prime. We do
our best to accommodate your needs, and ship around your vacation dates
when requested. B aby Mangos - Typically available late May to early June Baby mangos (pictured left) are approximately 2-3" in length and 2" in diameter, with very soft or unformed seeds. Baby mangos are available in 10 lb.(net weigh) packages. One pound is about 4 to 6 baby mangos. These small, delicate mangos are shipped by USPS Priority Mail only. Soft-Seed - Typically available early to mid-June
Soft-seed mangos (pictured above, right) are larger than the baby mango and weigh between one-half and one pound. The have an immature seed that can be cut with a knife. Available in four package sizes ranging from 8 to 48 pounds of mango. Hard-Seed - Typically available mid- to late June Hard-seed, as the name implies, have a fully developed seed that cannot
be cut. They are larger and more mature than the soft-seed weighing about one pound each. Available in four package sizes ranging in from 8 to 48 pounds net weight.
StorageGreen mangos are best refrigerated until use. Fruit may be shipped with ethylene absorption packets to prevent ripening. These need not be removed upon arrival, but should not be consumed.
