Ruma's is "Bear It's At" for St. Patrick's Day Gifts!



Around St. Patrick’s Day, some establishments celebrate by offering green beer. Well, that’s all well and good, but at Ruma’s – we can do better!

We are getting our holiday homophones on and offering green BEARS!

OK, so they aren’t technically green* but they are wearing plenty of it! Our adorable St. Patrick’s Day Irish Teddy Bear (above) is sporting a festive green derby and bright green bow and is happy to travel alone or paired with delicious Godiva chocolates.

This bloggers personal favorite, though, is the Luck of the Irish Teddy Bear - this oatmeal-colored cutie is wearing a fetching Irish wool sweater and has “Luck of the Irish” and a shamrock stitched in his wee feet!

And these cuddly cuties are just a couple of our great St. Patrick’s Day gifts!

Looking for edible ways to say “Erin go bragh!” ? Go gourmet with our Irish Treasure basket, brimming with tasty treats like shortbread, Irish coffees and teas, “Himself “ and “Herself” mugs, keepsake Irish flags and more!

St. Patty’s Day is less than a month away, so order soon to ensure delivery by March 17th!

*(And, no, unless you are from certain regions of the U.S., that's not technically a homophone, just um, bear with us.)

Fruit is the (an) Answer!


Don’t know about you, but watching the Olympics always makes us feel really inspired to get outside and kick some winter sports butt! Oh, if only we’d stuck to our New Year’s resolutions, we’d totally be doing that ski and shoot thing. For real.

Of course, we also know all too well that sitting on our own butts in front of the TV for two weeks can be a bit of a detriment to the ol’ “get up and go.”

What to do? Well, for starters, there’s nothing like adding heaping helpings of healthy, nutritious fruit to put the swish back in your slalom! When you eat better, you feel better, and when you feel better, well, there’s no mountain you can’t climb (and then do crazy tricks back down!)

And since we know the first step can be the hardest, we want to make it a little easier for you. When you sign up for ANY of our Royal Fruit Club memberships – tasty, fresh, seasonal fruit delivered to your door each month for 3, 5, 8 or 12 months – the shipping is FREE!

If you just need a little inspiration, or want to give a quick shot of oomph to a friend or family member, we also have a huge selection of fantastic fruit gifts like the Fruit Orchard and our fun Marathon Basket.*

And since Ruma’s has been carrying the torch of top notch produce sales for more than 100 years, you can be confident your order will score a perfect 10 – we guarantee it!

So, what are you waiting for, another bad Olympic pun? Okay – go for the gold and order today, because this free shipping offer won’t last forever!

*Regular shipping rates apply to these gifts. Free shipping offer good only on Royal Fruit Club orders.
