Ojai Blood Oranges:
Our blood oranges sweeten up by late January and we should have them in season for several months.  For 2026 we will only be shipping our deep red Smith's Red Blood oranges. (Our other varieties were largely buried by a mudslide in the winter of 2023).  

We will fill one our mail order boxes with 8 pounds (or 22 for the big box) of freshly picked blood oranges from our Newsome Ranch which are Smith's red blood oranges, a variety with a deep almost purple interior and easy to peel.

Our blood oranges are picked the day before they are shipped, so they will arrive to you as fresh as possible.  This is a great box to share, make beautiful juices and salads or simply to covet for yourself. Our blood orange season always comes and goes so quickly; once we start harvesting them and people catch on they are sold quickly. 

Box Size: Chose either the standard 8 pound box (approximately 20 pieces) or the large box (carton) with 22 pounds (approximately 70 pieces).

Send a holiday gift note now: Choose to send a gift note (put o 10 lines of text) ahead of the fruit for an additional $5.50 and we will send a pretty card with a note to the recipient letting them know to expect a box of our finest fruit in January.  Orders must be placed before December 18th to ensure arrival for Christmas.  

Include a gift note: For an additional $3.25 we will include a gift card in the box of fruit with up to 10 lines of text. 

Flexibility: Exact dates of shipping will depend upon the weather.  We cannot harvest in the rain and we do not ship into winter storms as citrus does not like to freeze even after harvest.  If recipients know they will be away we ask them to please let us know ahead of time so that fruit does not arrive to empty homes/offices.  Thanks.
