When you are hankering for something sweet why not grab a big juicy orange? You just can’t go wrong with a healthy, great tasting fruit that’s great just as is or when used in a tasty recipe!

Plus, the best tasting oranges are local to us here in the South. Florida Oranges are in season and waiting to be enjoyed as a snack, drink or as part of your favorite dish. You only need to grab them next time you shop at Publix!

So why choose Florida Oranges?

Some of the same things that make Florida a top tourist destination also make it a perfect place to grow citrus. Florida’s subtropical climate, abundant rainfall and unique sandy soil combine to help create the juiciest oranges in the world. Not only do they taste great, Florida Oranges are a great source of vitamin C and a good source of fiber, folate and thiamin.

It’s hard to pass up that natural goodness that tastes amazing. So whether you choose to slice and eat, squeeze for juice or include in a tasty meal—be sure to add delicious Florida Oranges to your shopping list.
