Great Gifts Start with Indian River Fruit

If you want to give great gifts that your friends and family will love start by choosing Indian River fruit. Whether you are buying fruit baskets and fruit gifts that can be sent to distant friends and loved ones or are buying Indian River oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines to make your own fruit gifts you can’t go wrong with Indian River fruit. Indian River fruit is known for having the sweetest and most delicious taste of any citrus fruit available for sale. Once you’ve tasted Indian River fruit you will never want to settle for oranges, grapefruits or other citrus fruit from the local market again. Indian River fruit is different from other citrus fruit because of where it is grown. The Indian River district of Florida is one of the few places in the world that has exactly the right conditions to produce juicy, sweet and super delicious citrus fruit naturally.

The Indian River district is quite a distance from the Florida coast so that the uncertain weather patterns and changes in temperature that can affect citrus groves closer to the coast don’t harm any of the fruit grown in the Indian River area. The soil in the area is nourished by deposits from the Indian River, which carries vitamin and mineral rich soil from all over the state and deposits it in the Indian River district. The combination of that super nutrient dense soil and the consistently warm weather create the best tasting fruit that you can buy. On the rare occasions when a cold snap threatens Indian River fruit the owners of the citrus groves in the area flood their groves with the warm Indian River water. Once the water covers the ground, sometimes lapping right up against the tree trunks, the warm water that evaporates from the river will raise the temperature around the citrus trees up to four degrees which protects them from frost or really cold temperatures. That helps to ensure that the delicious Indian River fruit can flourish. When the fruit is picked the succulent taste and super sweet juice is proof that fruit grown in the Indian River district is the best fruit available because of the conditions created by the Indian River.

It’s easy to create all kinds of gifts with Indian River fruit. If you want to send fruit to loved ones far away choose from dozens of beautifully arranged fruit gifts and order online at any time. Or, order a box of assorted oranges, grapefruits and other Indian River fruit to create your own unique fruit gifts.
