🍏🍎🍏ATHENS, ALABAMA ONLY: Peterson family members from AL are excited to take over your ATHENS delivery. Same apples, same family, but a different website. Head over to their website (https://www.facebook.com/share/18NCYtCqXr/) to get your order in!🍏🍎🍏
If you read our FAQ post last year (or any of the 8 previous years), you’re an apple pro and can just skip the rest of this post, but if you’re new to the apple family, this information might come in handy (because, let's be honest, who actually uses a peck measurement in his or her daily life?).
🍎Q. What are a Peck and a Bushel? How much do they weigh? How many apples will I get in my order?
🍏A. Peck and Bushel are measurements of VOLUME, not weight, but we can estimate weight.
- A Peck is approximately 10-12 lbs
- A Half Bushel is two pecks and is approximately 20-24lbs.
- A Bushel will weigh between 40 & 50 lbs.
It is impossible to predict numbers of apples accurately because apple size will cause this to vary greatly.
🍎Q. How long will these apples last?
🍏A. At room temperature: 1-2 weeks
In a cool dark place like a cellar: 1-2 months
In the fridge: 3-4 months for snacking and 6 months + for use in baking. This year my family and at least 1 customer were still eating our apples in August! They were wrinkled, but tasted great still.
🍎Q. Do I pay when I place my order?
🍏A. No. Payment is due at the time of pick-up. Your pre-order guarantees that we will reserve apples for you in case we get low on apples for walk-ups. We accept cash or Venmo payments. NO credit cards accepted, sorry.
🍎Q. What if something comes up and I can’t get my apples?
🍏A. If you no longer want your apples or cannot get them after ordering please notify us so that we can cancel your order and sell them to someone else.
Do you still have questions? Please let us know in a personal message or in a comment on this post.
