Fall Update

Some sets of our notecards are out of stock until further notice. Series I-II and III-IV notecard sets are on back order until further notice. After nearly 8 years of keeping everything in stock, this summer's upheaval (see below) has us out of stock on some of our notecards. Until further notice *very limited* quantites of Series V cards are still in stock. Meanwhile, the last of our wooden notecard sets sold at the Downtown Festival in Gainesville this past Oct 13-14. Everything else we will be restocking and resupplying over the Fall and into the Spring.

Fall shipping is still running a bit behind, due to an overhaul and relocation of our operations. Moving stinks, and we really do appreciate everyone's understanding that we are a very small operation, working hard to harvest the best of Gainesville and keep it on display! We appreciate your patience and would like to remind everyone ordering that as much as we would like to be as responsive as Amazon.com, our usual shipping patterns mean you can expect to see your orders within 2-4 weeks. As we approach the holidays we'll be resuming our normal faster turnaround times.

A New Look for the Gainesville Fruit Co.

Some time in the making, and after much hair-pulling & troubleshooting, we're glad to finally have the updated, revised and all-new Gainesville Fruit Co. website v2.0 online and live for testing. We have upgraded to a Content Managed System that's going to make things much easier to maintain, and allow me to maintain the site with more information, more frequent updates, and the addition of dynamic content. Look back often for updates on show schedules, new prints, and other interesting content.

2010 Update

It's hard to believe that the Gainesville Fruit Co. started as a personal project for me over 5 years ago, and has been supported so strongly by residents locally and UF alumni around the country. I am looking forward to what 2010 will bring, so let me explain what my broad plans are.

With over 26 different designs in the Gainesville Fruit Co. series alone and dozens of others between my Vintage Football, National Wonders and TykeStyle offerings, it has become increasingly hard to make an impression with you the customer in regards to new prints. Add to that the repetitive nature of locals seeing me 2-4 times a year at local shows, and I felt the need to step back and make a new splash, so to speak.
