Florida Winter's Walk!
A Florida winter's walk through our family's Indian River groves draws our minds to the past, present, and future.
Trees flourish on land purchased nearly 70 years ago. The sweet aroma of orange blossom predicts crops to come. And time-ripened oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, and tangelos, ready for the picking, adorn the deep green foliage.
In the web site that follows, you'll find the product of those groves creatively packaged in a variety of baskets and gift boxes, from our snow-melting Orange Obsession to the heartwarming Sweet Thoughts Basket. Don't miss the Janaury-only opportunity to enjoy the taste of Honeybell Tangelos, known for teir sweetness and peelability.
Part of what makes fresh Indian River citrus the perfect gift is its timelessness. It's been a favorite for generations and is sure to be welcomed for years to come. So treat yourself, a friend, or both - to a taste of the grove.
Sun Harvest Citrus - A Family Tradition |   | In our groves and in our store, Sun Harvest Citrus has a long-standing tradition of bringing you the very best Florida-grown citrus – a tradition that spans three generations of our family.
It began in 1940 when Robert Edsall, Sr. planted his first citrus grove in Vero Beach, He chose this Indian River location because he knew the soil, water and climate conditions were perfect for growing the most delicious citrus in the world. This legacy was handed down to Robert’s son, Bobby, and continues today through the leadership of Robert’s grandson, David McKenzie.
The Sun Harvest Citrus retail store and packinghouse opened in 1990 when Sandy McKenzie Nicely, Robert’s granddaughter, decided to offer Edsall Groves’ delicious Indian River citrus to the public. She and her husband Dave are joined by Sandy’s cousin, Drew Edsall (Robert’s grandson) in offering the family’s delicious Indian River citrus, fresh-squeezed juices, gourmet foods, candies, gifts and more at their store in Fort Myers
