Banana Colorado (Organic)

These Bananas are greenhouse-grown at Nutrient Farm in Colorado. They are smaller than your average banana, but very delicious. Banana is an elongated, edible fruit (botanically a berry) produced by large herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa. Key Details Origin: Native to Southeast Asia; now grown in tropical regions worldwide. Appearance: Usually curved and elongated, with soft, starchy flesh covered by a peel that turns from green (unripe) to yellow (ripe), or other colors like red in some varieties. Structure: Grows in hanging clusters (bunches) on the plant. Individual fruits are called "fingers." Types: Dessert bananas (e.g., Cavendish — the most common yellow variety sold in stores): Sweet when ripe. Cooking bananas (plantains): Starchier and usually cooked when green or ripe. Quick Facts Botanically seedless in cultivated varieties (tiny black specks inside are remnants). One of the world’s most popular and consumed fruits. High in potassium, vitamin C, and dietary fiber. Average weight per fruit: ~4–5 oz (110–140 g). Bananas are harvested green and ripen after picking. They’re versatile — eaten raw, blended into smoothies, baked into bread, or used in savory dishes (especially plantains). Nutrient Farm Fruit is produced with the highest levels of farming stewardship.
