Barn?

I couldn't get what the part of "I could get all these Golden Delicious in the barn by lunchtime." means. I believe that the noun "barn" denotes a building on a farm. So it sounds like the apples(Golden Delicious) grow inside the barn to my ears, but that obviously makes no sense, for the apple trees are outside on the farm. Could I get you to tell me how I should interpret the sentence? Thank you in advance!

The apples are currently outside the barn but I could store them all in the barn by lunchtime.

As far as I can see, they are carrying the apples from the orchard into the barn. "get all these Golden Delicious in the barn" refers to this action.
