I need to know where I can buy them cheap and how should I go about buying them in large quantities. Can they go bad? Can I preserve their freshness? How? Where can I buy them in N Calif?
thanks
you would be better off importing these fruits from Mexico, where they are also produce and are of far better quality, specially the Avocados from Michoacan state. They fruit can go bad, but the distributor can help by shipping the fruit before its fully ripe, it will ripen enroute, similar to how Bananas are exported. you can also buy them in processed form, the pulp in vaccum bags, that can endure refrigeration for an even longer shelf life. check the link below for a list of Mexican Avocado and Fruit exporters.
