Yes, National Avocado Day Is a Thing—Here’s How We’re Celebrating
Avocado-lovers in the United States have botanist and plant explorer David Fairchild to thank for introducing the beloved fruit-bearing tree, which is native to Mexico and Central America, to the country in the early 1900s. (If that fact intrigues you, I highly recommend this engrossing biography on the globetrotting food explorer.) In celebration of the avocado in all its green goodness, we bring you some themed home decor, clothing, and other accessories that honor the fruit—also called an "alligator pear" or "butter fruit"—that people around the world love to its core.
We love the products we feature and hope you do, too. If you buy something through a link on the site, we may earn an affiliate commission.
