You know the challenge. You have a health-conscious friend - they're on a diet, or maybe they're just plain careful about how they nourish their body. You want to treat them to something delicious. It's their birthday, or they've hit a major milestone. You search for healthy gift ideas, something that will support their health-conscious choices while also celebrating their special occasion.

Unsure about what to give as a gift that might support their progress and fit into their lifestyle? Start with the following suggestions, and get some ideas from Frog Hollow Farm:

Healthy Gift Ideas and Inspiration

To start, who are you shopping for? Today, health mindfulness can range from calorie counting to following a plant-based diet to getting in more protein. Fitness often enters the picture, too, working alongside diet to boost vitality and improve muscle and bone strength.

In this context, think about what your friend or loved one is passionate about and how they focus on their health:

• Fitness gifts: They routinely count steps or calories or make time for a workout or meditation, no matter how booked their schedule seems. In this regard, healthy gift ideas span virtual workout subscriptions to fitness trackers to gear reflecting how they stay active.
• Protein and muscle health: This overlap between diet and fitness promotes strength and healthy bones and aids the body in recovery. Consider a food gift, from protein powder to cheeses they can use in meal prep, that aligns with their nutritional and health goals.
• Organic and plant based: You know someone who equates health with what they eat, or examines the direct relationship between diet and sustainability. This individual seeks out farmers' markets - or simply heads to the closest farm for the freshest produce - and likes to know where their food is coming from. Healthy gift ideas range from fruit baskets and boxes to produce subscriptions to sugar and oil from more natural, less refined sources.
• The planner and calorie counter: They know how many calories are in a piece of fruit, cup of yogurt or serving of protein and plan their meals and overall diet around these metrics. Fruit gift baskets work, as do jars and containers for planning and portioning and cooking gifts like blenders and slow cookers.

Fruit Basket Gift Ideas From Frog Hollow Farm

Buying a gift for a health-conscious friend is easy when you shop with Frog Hollow Farm. Our fruit is healthy from the start. As organic farmers, we don't rely on synthetic chemicals to boost production or kill pests and diseases. Instead, we use nutrients found in nature to help our fruit trees thrive. And, with hundreds of acres of trees, you'll find delicious, healthy gifts for every occasion, all year long.

Here are a few suggestions for fruit gift baskets for your health-conscious friends:

Strictly Organic Fruit

Do you have a friend who lives for summer fruit? They're in for a treat! Frog Hollow Farm is known across the country for our drip-down-your-chin organic peaches, nectarines, plums and more.

Treat your friend to a basket brimming with fresh, hand-selected delicacies:

• Select our Organic Fruit Gift Box and pick the fruit you'd like to share. We wrap each piece and tuck it all into our signature gift box.
• Our Harvest Trio Organic Fruit Club is one way to show your ongoing support for your friend's healthy choices. We start with our Harvest Trio of conserves, made in the farm kitchen with our sweet, juicy organic fruit. Four shipments of our legendary stone fruit will follow from our spring/summer harvest.

Mix It Up with Fruit and Snacks (and Cheese, Please)

• Our Fruit and Snack Box is a perfect mélange of healthy and indulgent. We pack this box with sun-ripened fruit and grab-and-go snacks that include our dried fruit and nuts from partner farms.
• Want a gift your friend can enjoy from sun-up to sundown? Our Essential Gift Box is an excellent sampling of fresh fruit, granola and snacks. We include a bottle of our organic, Tuscan-style olive oil that's perfect for cooking and salad dressings.
• Who doesn't love fruit and cheese? Our Mixed Fruit and Cheese Box pairs seasonal fruit with perfectly balanced Carmody cheese from Bellwether Farms and creamy, decadent Original Blue from Point Reyes Farmstead, both made in California.

Indulging the People You Love

You know your friend best! To select the ideal gift basket:

• Think about how a fruit gift basket can complement their meals - from breakfast to dinner.
• Know what their favorite fruits are and plan accordingly. Pre-orders are a great way to surprise your friend with fresh fruit from our orchards.
• Know if they like to try new fruit and foods, or if they tend to stick to their favorites.
• Plan for that universal desire to snack on something fun and delicious!

Think About a Fruit Subscription

Our subscriptions are a healthy eater's dream! You can treat your friend to fresh, organic fruit from every season if you choose. Indulge them in a Frog Hollow Farm Fruit Club, and they'll receive a farm box on their doorstep for weeks, months or all year long.
