Nourish Your Body with Local, Seasonal Spring Fruits in the Seattle Area

As the Pacific Northwest shakes off the chill of winter, spring delivers a fresh burst of flavor, color, and nutrition especially when you’re shopping local. At Copa De Oro Fruits, we love celebrating the season by highlighting the fruits that grow closest to home. Supporting local farms isn’t just a feel-good habit it’s one of the best ways to stay healthy, reduce your environmental footprint, and enjoy food at its most flavorful.

Why Seasonal + Local Matters

Eating with the seasons means:

• Better flavor and higher nutrient, since fruits are picked at peak ripeness

• Lower environmental impact, thanks to fewer transportation miles

• Stronger local economy, supporting hardworking farmers right here in Washington

And spring is one of the most exciting seasons to start!

What’s In Season This Spring in the Seattle Area?

🍓 Strawberries	Local strawberries are sweet, juicy, and packed with vitamin C and antioxidants that help reduce inflammation and boost your immune system. Their natural sweetness makes them perfect for cold-pressed juices, fruit cups, or just snacking fresh.
🥝 Rhubarb	Though technically a vegetable, rhubarb is a springtime favorite in Washington. It’s high in fiber and vitamin K, and pairs beautifully with sweeter fruits like strawberries for a tangy, unique flavor profile.
🍏 Crisp Apples (from cold storage)	While apple season peaks in the fall, many Washington-grown apples are stored cold and stay fresh into spring. They’re a great source of fiber and antioxidants like quercetin, which supports heart health and immune defense.
🍐 Asian Pears	Crunchy, subtly sweet, and hydrating. Asian pears from local farms are in season during early spring. They’re low-calorie, high in water, and perfect for our wellness shots and fruit cups.
🥬 Bonus: Greens & Herbs	Spring also brings fragrant herbs like mint and basil, which we love blending into juices for a refreshing twist and a boost of antioxidants and digestion support.
