Stained your clothes with Pomegranate juice? No more!

We harvest a lot of Pomegranates at GreenFriends Farm. And we are constantly looking for better ways to collect the arils. What are the arils? Each seed is encased in a sweet and juicy covering known as an aril. We have a new addition to our toolbox for the Pomegranates. We have tried a different approaches, this new one is working well.

Most of the nutrients are in the arils. The seeds do have vitamin E and magnesium. The arils and seeds both contain antioxidants but the seeds are not as rich as the arils.

The arils comprise approximately half the weight of the fruit. It typically consists of 600 arils.
