Mandarins
We are still harvesting! You can still pick up your mandarins at the Foothill Farmers' Markets in Roseville on Tuesdays and in Auburn on Saturdays. The fruit is still beautiful and sweet. Juice some now so you can enjoy fresh mandarins all year long.

Kumquats
This unique fruit is brightly colored like an orange but is long and oval and closer to the size of an olive. The peel is sweet but the fruit inside is often sour or slightly bitter. It is often used to make jelly and marmalade but can also be used in salads or can be enjoyed right off the tree!oss We plant several different varieties of lavender in the grove. Not only does it smell great and look beautiful, it attracts a lot of begetter

Oro Blanco Grapefruit

Oro Blancos are a cross between a white grapefruit and a pummelo. They are nearly seedless, rather sweet and lack any bitterness and are less acidic than a traditional grapefruit. While they vary in size, they can be as big or bigger than a medium sized grapefruit, generally round to flat round, with a slightly thicker rind than a grapefruit.  Oro Blancos are a good source for vitamin C, vitamin A, and dietary fiber. Enjoy one today!
