To extend the life of your fruit, store it in a cool area—ideally, about 45 degrees. Storing it in your refrigerator is fine, but remember that fruit tends to dry out a little more quickly in the fridge.
We grow our premium citrus fruit in family-owned groves located on Merritt Island, in the heart of Florida's acclaimed Indian River region. Long regarded as one of the best places anywhere to grow large, juicy citrus fruit, it's the soil and warm, brackish ocean breezes—coupled with nearly 85 years of cirtus-growing experience—that make the difference. Your fruit is always picked by hand at the peak of ripeness, then hand-packed and shipped to your local post office. From there, your order is delivered directly to your home or office. Convenient...affordable...and some of the best-tasting fruit gifts anywhere. THAT'S the Harvey's Groves difference!
