A Tennyson Favourite is back: Sun-Oka's Award-Winning Apples!

9/18/2026

 
Once again we have the delicious Ambrosia and Honeycrisp apples from Sun-Oka Fruit Farms — juicy, sweet, and crispy. These apples were a hit last year and make the perfect fall treat for lunchboxes, pies, or just munching by the handful.
Each box is packed with fresh apples — and if it feels like too much for one household, why not split a box with friends or neighbors? A great way to support our 2027 Grads!

Order cut off: October 9th
