Last week on Tuesday July 12th, Eater.com, a media brand dedicated to culinary news, released a 45 second informational video on their Facebook page highlighting Shanley Farms Citriburst Finger Limes. The short clip quickly went viral. Within one week of its release, the video has been viewed on Facebook over 4 million times and shared over 20,000 times. The timing for this kind of education and recognition of finger limes could not have been better as it has lined up with the very beginning of the California finger lime season.
Shanley Farms is excited to get this momentum early on in the season. It is proof that finger limes are becoming more and more popular among the culinary crowd. But this crowd needs retailers help. They think finger limes are “crazy cool” and they want to use them in their cooking, they want to show them to their friends, and they want to feel that tantalizing pop of citrus explosion in their mouths, but where in the world can they find finger limes? Shanley Farms has you covered.
Finger Limes are now shipping Monday-Friday out of their Visalia, CA packing house. Pack styles include a 40 gram small clamshell for retail (approx. 5-8 finger limes), a ½ dry pint for foodservice (approx. 25-35 finger limes), and assorted bulk quantities. Shanley Farms ships both domestically and internationally having opened several export markets over the last 5 years since they first began marketing finger limes in 2011.
