The jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), is a species of tree in the fig, mulberry, and breadfruit family (Moraceae) native to southwest India. The jackfruit tree is well suited to tropical lowlands, and its fruit is the largest tree-borne fruit, reaching as much as 55 kg. Jackfruit is rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, magnesium, vitamin B6 and fiber.
We produce our Jack fruit in Mexico, and mostly grow it in the state of Nayarit.
