The Orange Shop

By: Misty Lundberg (Jan 14, 2011)
I ordered a half-bushel box of Pages and Citra navels on Dec 8th 2010. They didn't ship till the 14th (I had to email to get a correct shipment confirmation, as the one Local Harvest provides is incorrect) and it took till after the 22nd before they arrived at my home.

Now I understand it was the beginning of the "holiday crunch" when it comes to shipping, but I feel the entire time from when I ordered to it arriving at my mailbox was a bit extreme. I ordered stuff from Amazon and various other retailers and it shipped across the country in less time than my oranges got to me, and I was a horrible last minute shopper!

All in all the oranges are delicious and the Pages are simply fantastic, best oranges I've ever had! The color and the flavor is just unreal. The Citra navels make some of the best tasting juice. They were all packaged decently and there were no losses in the box, even considering my mailman dumped them down at our mailbox in the snow.

But if you're considering ordering for a gift or a special event, give yourself a good 2-3 weeks before you expect to get them.
