How bulk orders work
- Minimum order: 24 lbs for bulk pricing online. Want to taste first? Start with a single 8 or 12 lb case, or ask us for a sample.
- Packing: Sealed 1 lb and 2 lb food-grade containers, cartoned for shipping. A 36 lb order arrives as eighteen 2 lb containers, or thirty-six 1 lb — tell us the split you want. Nothing to repack, portion or re-label at your end.
- Lead time: Ships within 3 business days of your order. Transit is 2–5 business days nationwide, 1–2 days in Southern California.
- Grade: Jumbo Medjool, hand-sorted, whole with pits. Naturally ripened, no pesticides, no additives, no sugar coating.
- Holiday orders: Rosh Hashanah, Sukkot and Ramadan programs are booked ahead. Give us your date and we reserve the fruit.
- Standing orders: Monthly and quarterly schedules available. Tell us your volume and we hold it back at harvest.

Why buy bulk dates from the farm
- One farm, one crop. Every case comes from our own trees. You are not getting a blend of whatever a packer had on hand.
- Freshness you can date. Fruit is packed to order, not pulled from a season-old warehouse lot.
- The price is the price. Freight is inside the number. When you compare us to a wholesale quote, add their shipping before you decide.
- It arrives shelf-ready. Sealed 1 and 2 lb containers, not a loose bulk bag. Markets can shelve it, congregations and offices can hand it out, kitchens can portion it — no repacking, no scooping, no cross-contamination.
- You can talk to the grower. Questions about grade, sizing, or a delivery date go to the person who farms it.
Bulk questions
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes — and it’s free if you proceed: order a 2 lb box ($29, shipped), and when you place your first case we credit the full $29 back. Taste first, risk nothing. Most of our bulk accounts started exactly this way.
Are the dates kosher or organic certified?
They are grown without pesticides but we are not certified organic, and we do not hold a kosher certification. They are a single-ingredient whole fruit from our own ranch — we would rather tell you that plainly than imply a certification we don’t have.
Are they pitted?
No. Whole dates with pits intact, which is how they keep best. Ask us if you need pitted for a production run.
How long will they keep?
About three months at room temperature, nine months refrigerated, and over a year frozen. Bulk quantities are easy to hold.
Can I choose 1 lb or 2 lb containers?
Yes — tell us the split when you order and we pack it that way at no extra charge. Most markets take 2 lb; gift and hand-out programs usually want 1 lb.
Do you do private label or custom packing?
Ask. Small runs are possible depending on the season.
Do you carry other varieties in bulk?
Yes — Zahidi — now orderable online in 24 to 100 lb cases at the same per-pound ladder, in your choice of 1 lb or 2 lb sealed containers — and Barhi in season, August through September. Mixed cases are welcome — split a case between Medjool and golden Zahidi; our trade accounts often stock both from one shipment. Both varieties pack in sealed 1 lb or 2 lb containers, your choice per case — everything arrives shelf-ready.
