Shipping Policy

While we attempt to fulfill orders as quickly as possible, our commitment to ripeness and quality may require us to delay shipments. Based on our picking schedule, ripeness, variety availability, weather, and other conditions, we reserve the right to hold shipments as needed to provide you the freshest, ripest fruit we can. If placing an order online, please use the special instructions field during the order process to communicate any delivery requirements or if a specific delivery date is desired. We will do our best to accommodate delivery dates, but for critical shipments, we recommend calling us to confirm availability.

We do not ship C.O.D. and we do not require a signature for a package to be left unless requested. We ship via UPS or FedEx and are unable to deliver to P.O. boxes. Delays or returns due to invalid or incorrect addressing are the responsibility of the buyer, although we and our carriers do our best to ensure the product arrives as intended. We are not responsible for delays due to signature requirements or failed delivery attempts.

Incorrect Addresses/Reroutes

If your order requires a change in address by the shipping carrier, please call us immediately. If your gift is already with UPS, you will be charged a $25 rerouting fee. Address corrections will also add at least one day to the delivery time and, during warm/cold weather months, and may result in a compromised product.

Failed Delivery Attempts 

A correct address is essential because our products are perishable. UPS will attempt to deliver up to three times. After the third attempt, the order will be returned to Frog Hollow Farm. Failed delivery attempts do not qualify for replacements or refunds.

2023 Holiday Order Deadlines

Frog Hollow Farm uses UPS as its shipping partner for delivering online orders nationwide. We are thus, guided by UPS's Holiday schedule in determining our delivery dates throughout the year.
