Citrus Variety Shipping Calendar

We specialize in shipping grove-fresh fruit. That means that the fruit you are about to order is not sitting on a shelf ready to ship (and that's a good thing in our world)! Instead, we pick and pack based on incoming orders and we ship on particular days depending on the product purchased. When adding your items to your cart, we ask for your requested arrival week and we make every effort to meet that desired timeframe. 

If you're a pro at ordering fresh fruit gifts, you already know that different varieties are available for shipping only when they are in season. We've added the chart below to help show which varieties are available throughout Florida's citrus shipping season.

Please note, this variety calendar is a just a guide. Nature may not cooperate some years, which means that fruit may be available a little later than usual, or may run out faster.

 

Pre-Ordering

We offer a "pre-order" option for varieties that are not yet available to ship, but will be harvested soon. Feel free to place your order now and we will ship when your fruit is in-season and harvested. Pre-ordering is available for up to 2 months before fruit is availabel to ship.

Varieties currently available for pre-order:

  • Ruby Red Grapefruit
  • White Grapefruit
  • Mandarins
  • Navels
  • Scarlet Navels


Because Honeybells and Valencias are not yet available until 2026, these 2 varieties are not available for Pre-order.

  • Honeybells
  • Valencias
