HARVEST SHARE Fruit Box. From Field to Heart, Starting November
Harvest share for fresh fruit: seasonal boxes from community-supported agriculture – delivered to You, carried by a Europe-wide community.
Fruit box »Lemons«
A box contains around 16–28 lemons, depending on size. They are harvested fully ripe and do not ripen further after picking. Stored cool and dark, they keep for up to one month or longer.
The fruits come from the Anyfion cooperative in Nafplio (Peloponnese), where they are grown in smallholder orchards using regenerative methods such as crop rotation, mixed planting, and compost instead of artificial fertilisers. Harvested by hand and delivered untreated, their peel is especially aromatic and versatile.
This way, you can enjoy fragrant, sun-yellow lemons for weeks – perfect for juice, zest, tea, or Mediterranean cooking.
This product is only available for community deliveries.

HARVEST SHARE »Lemons« – Radiant Yellow Freshness, Straight from the Tree
Lemons with a vibrant glow – straight from the tree, sun-ripened, and full of intense freshness.
Each harvest share carries the signature of people who harvest with a keen eye and clear intuition when the time is right. The result is more than citrus fruit – it is part of a living connection between farm, landscape, and community.
Our lemons come from small-scale farms on the Peloponnese, where they are grown regeneratively in mixed cultures. Without synthetic additives, but with compost, crop rotation, and traditional knowledge. They are harvested by hand – exactly when the fruit on the tree has reached its full flavour.
Orders are possible year-round – but those who order early secure their place in the harvest planning and support the community-based logistics structure. In this way, every order becomes a contribution to farming that is fit for future generations.

Fruchtsolo »Mango«
Unsere Mangos werden in einem Waldgarten auf Kreta angebaut, einem einzigartigen Anbausystem, das die natürliche Waldstruktur nachahmt. Dieses Prinzip fördert eine hohe Artenvielfalt, indem verschiedene Pflanzenarten zusammenwachsen und Tiere einen natürlichen Lebensraum finden. Die Mangobäume teilen sich den Platz mit anderen Obstbäumen, Sträuchern und Kräutern, was die Bodenfruchtbarkeit erhöht und die Biodiversität stärkt.
Natürliche Schädlingsbekämpfung und Biodiversität
In den kretischen Waldgärten leben unter den Mangobäumen verschiedene Tiere, wie Vögel, Insekten und Truthähne, die zur natürlichen Schädlingsbekämpfung beitragen. Diese Tiere helfen dabei, schädliche Insekten zu kontrollieren und das ökologische Gleichgewicht zu bewahren. Die Vielfalt an Pflanzen und Tieren schafft ein robustes Ökosystem, das weniger anfällig für Krankheiten und Schädlinge ist.
Nachhaltige Bodenverbesserung
Durch die Vielfalt der Pflanzen und die regelmäßige Nutzung von Kompost wird der Boden kontinuierlich verbessert. Der Kompost erhöht den Nährstoffgehalt des Bodens und unterstützt das gesunde Wachstum der Mangobäume. Zusätzlich fördert die Kombination verschiedener Pflanzenarten die Bodenfruchtbarkeit und verhindert Erosion, was langfristig die Gesundheit des gesamten Waldgartens sichert.
Diese nachhaltigen Anbaumethoden machen unsere Mangos von Kreta nicht nur zu einer umweltfreundlichen Wahl, sondern bieten auch einen unvergleichlichen Geschmack und höchste Qualität. Unterstütze ein Produkt, das in Harmonie mit der Natur wächst und die Prinzipien der ökologischen Landwirtschaft respektiert.

If storing the fruits outdoors, protect them from frost, e.g. with a blanket or in a styrofoam box. Check the fruits upon arrival for bruises or damage, and consume any affected ones first. If you discover mould, remove the affected fruits.
Please follow the instructions on the label.
Lemons do not ripen further after harvest and are picked at their optimal ripeness. A fully ripe lemon has a uniformly bright yellow skin (some varieties may retain a slight green hue when fully ripe) and feels heavy for its size – a sign of high juice content. The skin should be firm, smooth, and free from soft spots, cracks, or mould.
MAXIMISE SHELF LIFE
Store lemons in a cool, dark place at 7–10 °C (45–50 °F) with a relative humidity of 85–95%. Under these conditions, they will keep for 2–3 weeks. In the refrigerator (4–7 °C / 39–45 °F), loosely stored with good ventilation, they can stay fresh for up to 6 weeks. Avoid airtight containers to prevent moisture build-up and mould growth.
SPEED UP RIPENING
Lemons are non-climacteric fruits and do not continue to ripen after harvest. For a more intense aroma, they can be kept at room temperature for a few days, which activates the essential oils in the skin and enhances fragrance without changing fruit ripeness.

Lemon tip
Even after juicing, lemons can still be used. Simply rinse the untreated peels, cut them into small pieces, and pour over hot water. Add a spoon of honey if you like, and you’ll have a fragrant lemon drink – less sour than juice, with the delicate flavour of the peel’s essential oils.
The lemons grow in smallholder orchards, cultivated traditionally for generations. Anyfion relies on crop rotation, mixed planting, and compost instead of artificial fertilizers. The fruits ripen slowly under the Mediterranean sun, are hand-picked, and packed directly on site. Thanks to organic farming, they develop their characteristic aroma and especially fragrant peel.
Our fruits are harvested only after Your order and at perfect ripeness. They are then packed fresh and untreated, cleaned exclusively with brushes and without water (to protect local water resources), directly into the cardboard boxes – ready for You to pick up just a few days later.
