Story

Florida Citrus Country is pleased to announce the purchase of our new location in Clearwater, FL. The creation of Florida Citrus Country was a merger of old Florida Families. W.C. and Nancy Lee and their son Dempsey and his wife Christina Lee are families who believe in the value of quality fruits and vegetables. The Lees have been involved in the Florida citrus industry since the early 1900s. The history of citrus groves and packinghouses has been a part of the Lee family for over eighty years. The Lee family has their own Florida historical labels such as the Yellow Kid, Gasparilla, Love-Lee, War Bonnet, and Beauty. These Florida citrus labels are just to name a few.
The location of our store has a long tradition dating back to 1946 when Mr. Allison Repetto opened it as Orange Blossom Groves. Florida Citrus Country will continue the traditions of the freshest fruits and produce, not to mention the famous orange – vanilla swirl ice cream.

We are family owned and operated. We look forward to serving you along with our store manager April Groth who has worked previously for Mr. Repetto since the beginning of her career.

At Florida Citrus Country we will be here with a friendly smile waiting to take care of all your citrus needs. You can purchase our fruit on site or we can ship your citrus orders wherever you would like. We sell fresh citrus varieties starting in November and ending with sweet Valencia oranges around early June. We hand pick our citrus daily to ensure the quality that you deserve. Grapefruit, Navels, Honey bells, Mid-Sweets, Sun Burst, Tangerines, Hamlins, Temples, and Valencia oranges are just a few of the varieties that we offer. Our fruit is picked fresh, so remember the varieties that are available are truly what we just picked off the tree.

Our gift shop is full of Florida treasures; our warehouse is filled with fresh citrus and produce, juices, marmalades, jellies, taffy and more. Remember, as the seasons change so do the flavors of our ice cream!

Please stop by and sample our many fruits and juices.

One of the last typical Florida citrus stands type of shop in this area. (In this part of the state, they have all been torn down.) Offers limited selection of typical Florida food specialties and souvenirs, including fruit. They have great fruit juice soft serve ice cream, which is a real treat!! Plus fresh squeezed juice! Friendly owner who is very knowledgeable about local attractions.

Wow! I have to say I'd don't know what to expect. I came for the citrus and orange juice. Which both were amazing. There is nothing better then fresh squeezed orange juice. Then I tried their homemade Orange soft serve ice cream. I highly recommend getting the ice cream too! We will make a stop here on our way to beach for now on.

Free but limited parking The store is very sparse , that's the only word I can think of to use. 3 jars of jelly taking up an entire shelf. It's almost like the store is about to go out of business. There are random tourist type souvenir items, different flavors of jelly and syrup, orange juice and key lime ice cream. All items are very expensive. I felt bad for the owner , so I bought some coconut butter $9 (basically coconut jelly) . I got the impression the store wasn't doing well, so I bought the jelly even tho I didn't want it. When I got back to my hotel room, I tasted the coconut butter "jelly" and it tasted good, like mashed up coconut and lots of sugar. I don't know what to eat it with so I will just keep it and try it on toast in the morning.
