Important Information Regarding Shipping Gift Fruit

Fruit for our Gourmet Fruit Gifts are hand selected from the best of the season's crop, then carefully hand packed to your order's specifications.

Apples are shipped ripe and ready-to-eat. Pears are selected for optimum ripeness at time of delivery with allowances made for ripening during transit. This ripening process depends on environmental conditions, as well as the varieties of fruit you've selected, and cannot be determined precisely.

To ensure that the fruit arrives at you or your gift recipients' door in top quality condition we ship via UPS and suggest the following shipping methods.

For shipment to the Pacific Northwest
(UPS Zone 3) area choose:
  • Next Day Air
  • Second Day Air
  • 3 Day Select
  • Ground
For domestic shipments outside of our immediate area choose:
  • Next Day Air
  • Second Day Air
  • 3 Day Select

When your fruit arrives, please determine the ripeness of the pears by using our included Ripening Guide. Some pear varieties may require up to several additional days to reach full ripeness.

Please note: At this time we are unable to ship fresh fruit outside of the continental US.
