Pears to take centre stage on World Pear Day 

This year’s World Pear Day on December 3rd will offer consumers around the globe the chance to celebrate with pears with live chef demos of new pear recipes and a whole series of other events. Pear lovers around the world will also be able to post their own love of pears using #worldpearday and #nationalpearmonth.

“Our vision for World Pear Day since its inception has been to launch national pear month and to get people thinking about and eating tasty, healthy pears all around the world,” stated Kevin Moffitt, President and CEO of Pear Bureau Northwest. “It is very gratifying to see how the interactions have grown with many organizations worldwide, enhancing pear’s image as the affable and approachable celebrities of the fruit world that they are.”

December is an optimal time to celebrate pears due to the abundance and variety of the fruit on the market worldwide.
