PRODUCE LIST

Our apes eat many different fresh fruits and vegetables every day. Some of the fruits and vegetables the apes eat and the amounts eaten in a week or two follow.  Each ape receives at least three different fruits per day, seven different vegetables per day, one starch per day,  and one leafy green per day, plus monkey chow and free access to water. Please feel free to donate produce not included on this list, and don't forget to visit our wishlist.

Thank you for your support!
