Description
Believe it or not, you don't even have to drive to an orchard to get fresh old-world apples anymore! You can just buy one of our premium Apple Boxes, packed with our homegrown, juicy McIntosh apples – one of North America's truly great heirloom varieties, a red and green apple with bright white flesh and a distinctive, refreshing flavor. Kauffman Orchards is a family-owned small business in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, established back in 1915 with a vision to provide the local community with fresh, nutritious fruit that enhances quality of life for the American consumer. Today, the orchard still follows that goal. Managed by the 4th and 5th generations of Kauffmans, Kauffman Orchards grows Nutrient-Dense fruit that has enhanced vitamins, minerals, and flavor. Mildly tart and quite aromatic, McIntosh apples are great for drying, snacking, most cooking purposes, and applesauce. Eat it fresh, slice it and serve with caramel dip, make a candied apple, slice it into salads, or make applesauce. Our Kauffman Orchards Apple Box contains premium, nutrient-dense, non-GMO, non-waxed McIntosh apples, and each apple has soft, high-density foam surrounding it to ensure protection during shipping. The 8-count box holds approximately 2.5-3 pounds of fresh apples; the 16-count box contains approximately 5-6 pounds and the 48-count box contains approximately 15-18 pounds. We carefully pack each apple box with the best quality apples that were picked by hand in our orchard. Since fresh fruit ripens quickly in hot temperatures during transit, we may wait to ship your order until Monday or Tuesday to ensure that your fruit arrives before the weekend. Refrigerate your apples upon arrival. Please Note: Due to California state agriculture regulations, we may not ship fruit to California. If an order is placed with the shipping address in California, we will cancel the order.
