Apple Gift Pack Frequently Asked Questions

 

         

How many apples are in a pack?
A single pack is 16 apples, a double is 32, and a triple is 48.

How long will it take to get here?
Depending on where we're shipping to, 1 to 5 days from time of shipping (not time of order). When orders ship depends on demand and weather; please do not assume that if you call today your order will ship tomorrow! For certain orders, to the West Coast for example, you may want to ship UPS air for an additional charge. Also, for many destinations, including Florida, we typically ship only on Monday and Tuesday, to avoid a weekend stay anywhere (apples don't like warm *or* freezing temperatures).

Do you ship to California?
No, once again, we aren't able to ship to California or Arizona. California doesn't want any other states' produce coming into their state... so they make it pretty impossible to do so. Sorry!

What varieties can I get in my pack?
We offer several choices, as well as a choice for a mixed pack. Apples that taste great and ship well are:
Idared:
a tangy, crisp apple good for eating and all baking uses
Crispin:
a big yellow apple with a sweet, juicy taste, which also cooks well
Empire:
a favorite for eating and baking, Empires combine the best of McIntosh and Red Delicious varieties into one apple
Winesap:
a tangy and juicy multi-purpose apple with great texture.
Red & Golden Delicious: the classic sweet eating apples, the way they were meant to be.
Premium apples: Honeycrisp, Macoun, Fuji, Braeburn: these have specific short seasons so be sure to order early.
2008: not enough Honeycrisp to ship this year.

A note on Macintosh.... we know some people love New York Macs, but the truth is they are a delicate apple and often don't ship well. If you must have Macs we can ship them, but be aware that they may get damaged or soften in shipping, which we can't control and we can't provide refunds/replacements for.

Can I get other goodies in my pack?
Sure, we offer an assortment of tasty treats to go with your apple pack (remember though, that means fewer apples in a pack). From jams and honey, to cheese and Scotty's cakes.

How do I place an order?
Either stop in or call in.

When can I send a gift pack?
To ensure our gift packs are the tastiest they can be, Soons ships only between October 1 or so through January 31. It is often too cold after that, plus supplies have dwindled, so after that, shipments are available on a weather-contingent basis (please call us (845-374-5471).

And the fine print?
We can't ship to APO, FPO, Canada, Puerto Rico, international addresses or PO Boxes. Weather and other emergencies can delay shipments. If your gift recipient is unhappy, or receives a pack that was damaged in shipping, please contact us immediately.
