Note about shipping fruit. Sorry, we do not ship stone fruits (peaches, nectarines, and cherries). We have tried this and our tree-ripened fruit does not survive when shipped by UPS or other parcel services. Our stone fruits are only available from our pick-up sites in Davis and Dixon. Apples can be shipped sucessfully, though the cost is high (apples are heavy).
