ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for obtaining uniform ripening of fresh produce using sunlight and air in the shape of a stand has a number of slats that are supported by the sides of the stand. The position and spacing of the slats can be adjusted to accommodate produce of different shapes and sizes. The stand is constructed so that multiple units may be stacked atop one another. One embodiment particularly suitable for use on window sills is rectangular in shape with openings on the sides to permit free circulation of air. A second embodiment uses the same principle but the slats are in the annulus between two hollow circular cylinders with vertical walls. This too is constructed so that multiple units may be stacked atop one another. This embodiment takes up more space, but because of its decorative aspects, can be used on tables.
