Ciders for a Good Cause: City Fruit

Ciders for a Good Cause: City Fruit

Enjoy these ciders in support of a good cause, our favorite Seattle area non-profit, City Fruit. We at Press Then Press will donate all proceeds from sales of these variety packs directly to City Fruit. City Fruit is near and dear to our family, we have been supporting the organization for more than 10 years and Erik has volunteered on it's board of directors for more than 6 years now. We appreciate your support of City Fruit through buying these ciders - cheers! 

About City Fruit: City Fruit’s mission is to steward and harvest urban fruit trees to support sustainable and equitable access to fruit. Food insecurity has remained prevalent within the Seattle community. Rates of food insecurity are continuing to rise due to inflation, causing applications for food stamps and food bank visits to increase while access to government aid wanes. To address this need, we harvest quality, organic fruit from hundreds of residential fruit trees annually, and share this fruit with our community. In 2025, we distributed over 90,000 servings of fruit to over 30 food banks, meal programs and mutual aid organizations across Seattle. Through our Harvest Program, we strive to ensure organic, locally grown fruit is available to everyone in our community. To learn more and follow City Fruit's efforts, visit their website

About the ciders: Some of the apples harvested by City Fruit each year are crabapples and cider specific apple varieties that aren't the most sought after for eating, but make incredible cider. Cidery partners from the Seattle area buy the apples from City Fruit and make delicious ciders each year. Seattle Cider, Greenwood Cider, and Barmann Cellars have all released great bottles of City Fruit cider from the last 3 harvest seasons. Seattle Cider was our original cider partner, making a City Fruit blend nearly every year for the last 15 years.

We ship cider in boxes that safely hold 4-bottles, 6-bottles, or 12-bottles. Order in one of those quantities (or multiples of those quantities) to maximize your shipping value. For example, if you order 2-3 ciders, there will be room left in the box and it won't meaningfully change the shipping costs to fill the box.

We do have 1-bottle boxes, but in most all instances it will cost the same to ship you a full 4-bottle box.

Shipping to a business address will usually save you a few bucks!

Shipping cost estimates:

  • Pacific Northwest/West Coast: Shipping anywhere in the Pacific Northwest or West Coast is relatively inexpensive. Almost all box sizes cost $16-21 to ship. Same is true for most destinations in the Mountain Time Zone.
  • Central Standard Time Zone / Midwest: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $18-24 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $22-30 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.
  • East Coast: A 4-bottle or 6-bottle box will usually cost $20-25 to ship. A 12-bottle box will usually cost $25-35 to ship. Variance depends on weight and how far from a FedEx/UPS shipping center your delivery address is.

Important Shipping Information:

  • We are able to ship cider to most, but not all, states.
  • Legally, someone 21+ must be present at the time of delivery to sign for the cider. We cannot ship to PO Boxes or AFO/FPO addresses.
  • Shipping prices vary by weight and destination. How far you are from Seattle (where we ship from), and remote vs. central your shipping destination is, and how heavy your box is will make shipping vary.
  • The bigger the box, the less you pay in shipping on a per-bottle basis. We ship in 1, 4, 6, and 12 bottle boxes - order in those quantities for the best shipping value. The size of the box matters as much as the weight, so don't leave empty slots in your bottle box! Shipping a 1-2 bottles will cost the same as shipping 4-6 bottles in most cases. Shipping a 12-bottle box is usually only $3-5 more than shipping a 4-6 bottle box.
  • Re-delivery and returns are the responsibility of the customer.
  • We don't recommend shipping during periods of extreme weather. If your area has weather of concern, please contact us and we can hold your order.
