Where to buy Oranges/Grapefuits
I have bought & have had visiting relatives buy from The Orange Barn (301 US-441, Lady Lake, FL 32159). They carry only the FL oranges & grapefruits which are in season at any particular time of year. So you know you are getting FL fruit. They also have OJ in gallons & lots of other food items to buy. Really enjoy their shop.

Where to Buy local citrus - Gregory's Groves
I sent fruit to all of my relatives in NC at Christmas, and they were thrilled with the quality of the oranges they received from Gregory's Groves in nearby Weirsdale. I know the owner personally and know that they take great care to provide only the best. Honeybells are now in, and there are some great deal both online, or you can call 800-466-3923.

Take HWY 42 east to Umatilla. There is a new Citrus Country Store. Fresh Oranges and Juice. 25 minutes from Villages, nice drive!
|
I ordered Florida Honeybell Oranges when they were the TSV on QVC last week! Unfortunately, I missed the first shipment and won't get mine for at least another week.
Ok, so I'm in snowy Michigan and can't go to any of the local vendors. But. I'm going to subscribe to this thread for future reference! |
You can order Honeybells from Jennings here: Honeybells
|
If you want a huge selection and the experience of picking your own visit Showcase of Citrus, 5010 US Hwy 27, Clermont. They offer acres and acres of every citrus variety you can imagine. If you don't want to pick your own they also have plenty sold by the pound or by the bag. It's a fun adventure in pretty weather!

I buy mine from a gentleman on Sun Harbor Road, on the right where you turn to go to Elton Beach. Very good oranges and prices.

I'm curious what would one tray of oranges cost if I were able to buy them near The Villages? |
I know this thread is an old one, but I thought it would be a good place to add this info.......
On Friday I bought wonderful, big, sweet Ruby Red grapefruit at Jennings on the corner of 466 and 301. They were 75 cents each. I bought some really good oranges there, too. I chose everything from those bins outside. |

You can eat grapefruit? So many people have mentioned that they can't because of some common medication seniors take. I can't think what it is. |

Grapefruit juice and statins - Harvard Health |

Yes. I do. I had forgotten about the point you just made. Here is all I know about that............ I know there are medical articles about grapefruit and statins so people who take statins and like grapefruit should ask their docs. I think the grapefruit effect may vary by amount and also may vary by the specific statin within that class of drugs. Certainly statin-users should check on the science with their doctors. Thanks. |
