FAQ's
How are your apples different from the regular market apples?
We at Barahnaja Organics work on Orchard to table model. We harvest our apples and dispatch it on the same day to our customers. So the produce that reaches you is single source, fresh and good to it. Market apples go through a big supply chain from farmers to end user, it ends up spending atleast 1 to 2 months in transit before it reaches you, thats why the apple is usually not crunchy and is stale most of the time.
What is apple size and grading and what is difference between selected pack and value pack?
Apple is graded according to its size in india. The diameter of the fruit determines the size, A 50 to 55mm diameter fruit is recognised as small and a 80 to 85mm is considered large.Though apples taste same irrespective of size, a large selected pack a found in a small quantity in an apple tree thats why it is priced premium.

Apples are generally a hardy fruit and has a decent shelf life.
