Citrus Fruit Season is here !! We offer the world's finest  gourmet quality citrus fruit at bargain basement prices. Our very special citrus fruits are available (in season) to the general public every Fall and Winter.  We ONLY sell the freshest fruit, picked in season and shipped to us overnight for healthful freshness and top flavor.  All receipts from sales are donated, in full, to local charitable organizations.  Orders must be placed in advance, by telephone.  For those who may forget to place their advance order, we do buy  a small quantity of extra fruit (but quantities are limited - so order ahead on our telephone hotline to be sure you get all fresh citrus fruit you want).
