Hey, Twin Cities, Reserve Your SweeTango

SPECIAL PROMOTION IN THE TWIN CITIES OF MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL ONLY

ReserveSweeTango_SocialImages_v3-01Apple lovers in the Twin Cities can get a jump on the “Short & SweeTango Season” by reserving a supply of the Minnesota-bred sensation.

When shoppers pick up their bounty, they’ll also get a free tote bag, t-shirt and apple season calendar.

Shoppers can visit participating Lunds, Byerly’s, Festival Foods and Knowlan’s Food Market stores for details on reserving SweeTango, or they can go straight to http://reserve.sweetango.com to complete a reservation.

The one-of-a-kind “Reserve Your SweeTango” promotion ensures that SweeTango fans eager for harvest time will be among the first to get their hands on this year’s crop.

Each SweeTango reservation will include:
· One 4-lb. bag of SweeTango apples for $15
· Free tote bag
· Free SweeTango t-shirt
· Free “SweeTango Season” calendar

Reservations will be accepted through Monday, Sept. 2 (Labor Day) – or until 1,000 shoppers make a reservation, whichever comes first. Reserved apples will be available for pickup the weekend after Labor Day.

Those who reserve a supply of SweeTango will receive some of the first apples harvested this fall. Apple lovers who don’t reserve SweeTango still will be able to find the apples in Twin Cities grocery stores starting in early September.

“We’re going to be harvesting a great crop this year, enough to satisfy SweeTango fans throughout the Twin Cities,” said Tim Byrne, president of Next Big Thing, a cooperative of orchards that grows and markets SweeTango. “We’re offering SweeTango reservations to give our hometown fans a head start on the SweeTango season.”

Reservations are being accepted in the Twin Cities only. SweeTango fans who make a reservation can choose one of six Lunds, Byerly’s and Festival Foods locations to pick up their apples. They will receive an email message letting them know when their reservation is ready for pickup.
