Ripe Prok American persimmon fruit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Our freeze dried treats are made from American persimmons grown, harvested and processed at Red Fern Farm.<\/p>\n

Our persimmons are allowed to ripen on the tree and are harvested after fully ripe. We carefully clean and store the fruit till processing day. Our puree is 100% American persimmon fruit with nothing added.<\/p>\n

American persimmons are naturally sweet and rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are also an excellent source of dietary fiber making these a delicious, healthy snack.<\/p>\n

Fresh American persimmons are bright orange bags of sugar \"\" growing on trees. The skin is smooth and\u00a0 soft with a whitish blush. Inside, the flesh is a vibrant deep orange with a jelly-like texture that becomes increasingly succulent as the fruit matures. It’s so soft that it can be easily scooped out to reveal an almost gelatinous consistency. These persimmons release a sweet, honey-like scent that intensifies upon full ripening. The hard, unripe fruits are highly astringent due to tannins. Fully ripe American persimmons offer a silky, sweet flavor reminiscent of caramel, with hints of honey, tangerine, and heavy cream, all enveloped in a custard-like texture. Because of their softness and delicate skin, American persimmons do not ship well. Drying has been a traditional way of storing both American and Asian persimmons. Our freeze drying technique preserves the sweetness and nutrition of American persimmons and turns it into a crunchy snack.<\/p>\n
