Countryside Citrus

Description

We are growers, harvesters and shippers of Indian River citrus. We only sell what we grow in our groves on the east coast of Florida. The climate here, on the line "where the tropics begin," is optimal for raising delicious grapefruit, oranges, tangelos and tangerines. Many things have changed in the farming business since we began. Once there was a family-run grove stand every few miles. Many people in the county were farmers. Groves were passed from generation to generation and fathers and mothers worked with their sons and daughters on family farms. Today, there are less than a handful of grove stands in our county. Groves are increasingly sold to grow new houses instead. Family farms are absorbed into out-of-state corporations. These are the facts of a global economy. Countryside Citrus is different. We are still a family farm. Generations work together to nurture, harvest and ship our fruit to you. Our loyal employees take pride in the continued growth of our company and work very hard to bring you the very best product. Come and visit our groves and shop in Vero Beach, Florida. You will see for yourself the results of the love and passion that make us the proud keepers of a grand tradition that is the citrus industry. Come see us to enjoy the finest fruit, fresh squeezed juices, ice cream and slushees, specialty foods and unique gifts.
