COST AND CARRIERS

At Hiroshi Ranch, we do our best to minimize the cost of shipping.  However, shipping perishable products is expensive.  Instead of inflating the costs of our products, we allow you to choose your shipping method based on the exact shipping cost.

We ship with both UPS and FedEx. Shipping rates are calculated based on the weight of your order, the shipping method selected, and the distance your order needs to travel. All orders ship from our farm in Central Ohio.
