BUMPER CROP
(Saturday) Florida, the largest citrus growing state in the US, is expecting its biggest harvest ever this winter. This is good news for orange juice drinkers but not such good news for the growers. Link to Naples News article

California looks like it will be a little bit higher than average, Arizona a little lower, and Texas right about average. USDA Link

The Boydston crop looks like it will be about average -- satsumas seem a little low but valencias are high. I have a mandarin tree that is producing for the first time this year. And my white grapefruit is about average. Then there is my lime tree -- so far I've spotted three limes -- not even enough for a pie!
