Crossword Genius

Involved in delivering our daily fruit (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gourd

'fruit' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'involved in delivering our daily' is the wordplay.
'involved in' indicates a hidden word.
'GOURD' is hidden in the letters of 'delivering our daily'.

(Other definitions for gourd that I've seen before include "Pumpkin, e.g" , "Squash, for example" , "Hard-skinned fruit" , "Fleshy fruit" , "Plant related to the pumpkin, squash and cucumber" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
