Featured in Martha Stewart LIVING and on Oprah Winfrey's favorite holiday gifts list, the Warren pear is in a class of its own. It has a classic European texture — soft and juicy with a melting mouth feel. The Warren pear is sweet to taste and avoids the typical grittiness found in most other pear varieties.  Warrens are harvested in late August and are available until late December or early January.

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: this pear was discovered by Thomas Oscar Warren growing naturally outside a post office in Hattiesburg, MS. Once known as the Post Office pear, it's taken on its founder 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.

Our regenerative organic practices not only produce great fruit, but they also provide important ecosystem and climate benefits. We build soil health by composting, planting cover crops, and not tilling. The soil contains thriving communities of beneficial microbes and fungi that fertilize our trees. And we are fighting climate change by building the carbon storage capacity of our soil. Our orchards store an average of 29 tons of carbon per acre – that’s the equivalent of taking 1,488 passenger vehicles off the road for one year!

  • We ship nationwide via UPS Gold Standard Carbon Neutral Shipping
  • For fresh fruit and perishable items we aim for your shipment to spend no more than 2 days in transit. Due to this, items may not ship over the weekend. See shipping at checkout for estimated delivery date.
  • UPS does not ship to PO boxes


Our promise to you: if your order doesn't arrive fresh and if you or your recipients aren't delighted, we'll make it right.

Warren Pears

Average. Pears misshapen, sized from small to large and not ripe. Let them ripen and they were okay.

Delicious!

The pears after ripening were sweet, juicy, and probably the best pear I've had in my life! Yum!

The best!

FHF became my favorite source for local fruit at The San Francisco Castro farmers market many years ago. I'm so grateful I found them, and have followed them everywhere since. These pears are the absolute best. Famous for a reason!

The Donut Peach of the Pear World

Donut peaches are the juiciest of peaches, and these Warren pears are by far the juiciest pears we’ve ever had. Also lusciously sweet. 2 thumbs up!
