During the fall, we love to ship apples. Sending a gift box from the farm is a great idea for the holidays, as a hostess gift, for a student studying for final exams, or corporate gifts. We ship only our quality tree ripened, hand picked and hand packed apples. You can ship all apples that we grow including the Honey Crisp (see additional apples in the list below). Gift boxes can be available for pick-up or shipment within in the continental US.

Sorry, we are unable to ship to California.

Harvest to Thanksgiving is the most successful time to ship apples from our farm - the apples are fresh from the trees and full of crunch and flavor. We usually start shipping the last week of September with early varieties and most other apples are available by October 1st.

In recent years we have had light crops on certain apples and were not able to fill orders that were placed in December. Please order early to ensure we have the variety of apple you desire available. If you order early, we will reserve your apples to make sure your order is complete with quality apples for the date you request.

Two sizes of gift boxes are available: a single layer - 20 apples or a double layer - 40 apples (half bushel). Honey Crisp apples have a different price as indicated below. We also have two different ways to pack the apples, pulp trays like we have in the past, or new foam packaging. There is a significant price difference as indicated in the pricing section below. We also have two different box types. One is white with red ribbon, the other is brown with leaf pattern. There is no price difference in the two types of boxes. A picture of each is below. If no specification is indicated, the classic white box with red ribbon will be assumed.

Apples are typically shipped on the Monday or Tuesday following receipt of your order unless otherwise requested. This is to prevent the apples from sitting in the shipping depot over the weekend.

Available apples to be shipped

(May vary season to season for light crops):

Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Jonathan, Empire, Mutsu (Crispin), Ida Red, Gala, MacIntosh, Rome, Jonagold, Braeburn, Fuji, Winesap, Northern Spy and Honey Crisp.

Our prices have risen since last year. Four years ago we purchased a bulk amount of packaging and now we must order new quantities and prices have increased significantly. Our increase is due largely impart to the packaging increase. We still offer the same high quality hand picked, hand packed fruit at lower prices than many other farm markets.

When ordering, please specify pulp or foam as well as which box type you prefer. There is no price difference for the two boxes.
