Apple Gift Boxes


We will have Haralson, Fireside, or Connell Red available in a single layer gift box 
holding 18 to 20 great tasting Minnesota apples. Each box will have a variety 
description giving apple characteristics and a little history. We will also include 
our mission statement and a flyer with background on our farm, family, and growing 
practices. This will make a great holiday gift for your friends, neighbors, or 
family. Skip the grocery store gift basket with bland oranges and the tasteless Red 
and Golden Delicious apples from who knows where. Give a gift of fruit that not only 
looks nice but also will be enjoyed when eaten! You have been eating great tasting, 
fresh packed Hoch Orchard apples since August, so you know the apples in the gift 
you give will be delicious. Your friends and family will appreciate knowing that 
the apples were grown using environmentally friendly methods on a Minnesota family 
farm. 

 
 Unfortunately, we don’t mail out fruit from the farm, but the gift boxes are in 
sturdy shippable containers that you could wrap and mail. You can get our gift 
boxes at the following Cooperatives:
 
  
Peoples Food Coop in La Crosse
North Country Coop in Downtown Minneapolis
Seward Coop on Franklin Ave in Minneapolis
Linden Hills Coop in South East Minneapolis
Mississippi Markets in St Paul
 
Some of the stores will stock the gift boxes while others will have a display box 
to see and will take orders.
