Fall Apple Sales


Every year, Kiwanis sells fresh-picked, locally-grown apple to raise money for our scholarship program.

Get a bag to enjoy at the office, or get a box to share with neighbors or family.  These crisp, fresh apples make great pies, chips, cider, juice, or sumptuous autumn treat. Every penny of the proceeds goes to help send deserving students to college.  In these times, we are striving to double our scholarships to help ease the burdens of families.  We have set the ambitious goal of selling 300 boxes.

You can contact us if you’d like to order from a member, or you can order your peaches through Paypal below, and they will be available for pickup Thursday & Friday October 28-29 from 4-7pm at Western Sizzlin Parking Lot. Got questions? Call Fundraising Chair, Terry Herndon, at 706-266-4140!
