Frequently Asked
Questions

How do I know my fruits are indeed organic?

  • At Stemilt, that’s easy. We pack our organic fruits under the Artisan Organics label, and include the PLU sticker on every organic apple and organic pear we ship in your gift box. Additionally, that sticker will have a leading “9” before the four digits, to designate it as organic. For cherries, which don’t come with stickers on them, a USDA Organic sticker will be on the bag of organic cherries. Organic certifications are regulated by the USDA or like state agency. In order for a farmer to achieve an organic certificate, he/she must farm that orchard organically (based on National Organic Program standards) for three consecutive seasons. The certificate must be renewed annually. On the packing side, facilities must maintain an organic certificate and uphold certain standards in order to ensure organic and conventional fruit does not co-mingle.

Are Stemilt fruits GMO (genetically modified organism)?

  • No, Stemilt does not use genetically modified seed to produce apples, pears or cherries.

What should I do if my fruit is damaged?

  • At Stemilt, we believe each gift is meant for a specific purpose: to thank, to congratulate, to comfort, to surprise. Ensuring your gift meets the desired purpose is our ultimate goal. If our fruit does not meet your expectations, let us know by calling 800-315-2306 or emailing  orders@sincerelyfresh.com and we’ll replace the gift or give you a full refund, whichever you prefer. Be sure to provide us with the correct shipping address. We do our best to verify addresses with FedEx but cannot issue refunds that were delayed because of an incorrect address.

How long does shipping take?

  • In order to maintain fruit quality during shipping, we ship all items two-day standard. Cherries are shipped two-day but packed in a way that keeps them cold in order to maintain freshness. This means your order will never be in transit longer than two days. In some instances, your order may be delayed for up to one week due to adverse harvest conditions or fruit that doesn’t meet our stringent quality control. We make sure only the freshest and most flavorful fruit makes it to your doorstep! To ensure every gift is only in transit for two days or less, we only ship on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. If you order by 11AM PST, we do our best to make sure your order goes out the same day. The majority of all orders ship within 72 hours; the exception being an order placed after 11AM PST on Wednesday or anytime Thursday-Sunday. Those orders will ship the following Monday.

How do I check my order status?

  • To track your order, visit FedEx.com and enter your Order ID and press the “Track” button. The Order ID can be found on your receipt and in the order confirmation email.
