The Warren is to our pears as the Cal Red is to our peaches and the Flavor King to our pluots. This is Frog Hollow Farm's signature pear and for good reason. It has a great origin story, discovered by Thomas Oscar Warren growing naturally outside a post office in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Once known as the Post Office pear, it's taken on its founders name and is a favorite of chefs. Too difficult to grow for most farmers to consider, it's never caught on commercially—but Farmer Al has never shied away from putting the time and effort into a fruit that tastes so good. It has a classic European texture, very soft and juicy with a silky sweetness that avoids the typical grittiness found in most pears. Warrens are harvested in late August. (from Frog Hollow Farm)
