fruitery

Where apples sell

A fruitery is a place where fruit is grown, stored, or sold—typically a building or room for keeping harvested fruit in good condition.

The word is uncommon in contemporary usage, having been largely replaced by more specific terms like orchard, fruit cellar, or produce market.
