Please note: These apricots are sent at your own risk. Our Moorpark Apricots are picked when they reach their distinct straw colour, sometimes showing a hint of green on the top or side. They ripen from the inside out and must be handled as little as possible. Every box is picked straight from the tree into the box you receive — minimising handling to protect their delicate, naturally tree-ripened skin.
Loved for their intense sweetness, fragrance, and rich flavour, Moorparks are a true Central Otago classic — perfect for eating fresh, preserving, bottling, or baking into beautiful desserts.
Picked daily and dispatched Monday to Thursday for overnight delivery (rural cut-off Wednesday).

Perfect Pairing
