This just in from Local Harvest:

Turn the calendar page to December and some people start to think about cookies. Lots of cookies. Now I love a good peanut blossom as much as the next guy, but in December I start thinking about citrus. It's been months since we've had any in the house, but 'tis the season!

This year, for the first time ever, we are offering Page oranges, which I'm told are fairly rare. They are renowned for their exceptional flavor. Pages are smaller than the average orange, which makes them perfect for snacking. Ours came from Pete and Cindy Spyke at The Orange Shop in Citra, Florida. They recommend ordering a big box so you have plenty to squeeze for juice. Of Page orange juice, Pete says, "Life will never be the same again!" Now through December 21, Pete and Cindy are offering free shipping on single variety boxes of Page oranges, and on combination boxes of Page and Citra navel oranges.

Another good option is the ever popular Satsuma Mandarins from Chaffin Orchards in Oroville, CA. These easy to peel beauties come with free shipping, and now through December 18 are on sale for their lowest price of the season.

Need a good gift idea? Give someone you love some fresh-off-the-tree citrus, from LocalHarvest! Need a little juiciness at home? Order a second box for yourself!

With best wishes for healthy, happy holidays,

Erin
