These California Heirloom Navels have it all: sweet, juicy, and the classic ‘orange-y’ taste. They’re the quintessential orange…you’ll fall in love with them!
San Joaquin Valley, California
Our Navel oranges are grown in the idyllic San Joaquin Valley near Dinuba, California. There they receive the intense sunshine needed to give them their sweet sun-kissed taste.
Our Navels come from Suntreat Citrus, which has been in involved in citrus for over 60 years. Founded by brothers Harry and John Griffith, they came to California to start a farm and build a nursery, and created an amazing farming environment.
This Heirloom variety is grown on original Washington Navel rootstock, making this difficult find orange much sweeter than grocery store navels.
Our California Heirloom Navel are hand-picked and harvested from late February to early March.
It’s difficult to grow the perfect Navel. Most commercial groves want to grow as many as possible, with less focus on quality. And when they do reach the grocery store they’re weeks or months old which is terrible for flavor.
Our Navel Oranges are carefully grown and never artificially colored. And we never keep them in cold storage, we deliver to you within days of harvest for the best flavor possible!
Perfect timing means perfect fruit.
All our fruit is “tree ripened” allowing it to stay on the tree longer giving it richer, sweeter flavor. Most grocery store fruit is picked too early and stored for weeks or even months. Our fruit is picked and delivered directly to you within days of harvest – you’ll taste the difference.
Our California Heirloom Navel harvest takes place from late February to early March. Pre-orders begin in February, and we only harvest what is needed for our orders.
We offer our Navels in a 20 lb. box shipped directly to your home or to your friends and family nationwide!
