What makes Hale Honeybells special?

Fleeting pleasure: Harvested each year for a limited time only

FRESH

FROM GROVE THE since

1947

Location, location, location.

Here on Florida’s Indian River, the unique combination of sunlight, soil, water and temperature create a very special microclimate that’s the envy of other citrus-growing regions. In short, it’s the most perfect place on earth to grow our rare Hale Honeybells.

There’s no substitute for good genes.

H FREMSTHE

FRO since VE GRO

1947

Hale Honeybells are a hybrid of the delicate Dancy Tangerine and the super-sweet Duncan Grapefruit. They’re brilliant in color with a unique bell-shaped body that’s heavy with juice. There’s just no mistaking the rich honeyed sweetness and extraordinary flavor that sets this fruit apart from the rest.

Timing is everything.

Here’s the catch: Fabulous as they are, the Hale Honeybell harvest lasts only a few brief weeks each winter. To experience them this season, you must order right away. As a gift, they’re a sweet way to say thanks for a wonderful holiday season.

And now is the only time you can get them. Be sure to reserve yours today.

Honeybell Smiles Across the Miles

Hale Honeybells

Conspire with us to make their day.

Experience the rare pleasure known only to Florida fruit connoisseurs.

We call this gift of 16 snack-sized Hale Honeybells “Smiles” because that’s what they’ll do when they open the box. Nestled among the juicy and delicious Honeybells are gourmet chocolate lips and sweet Honeybell Candies. This is the same fabulous fruit you’d expect from Hale Groves, now in a special smile-making gift box.

Harvested in January only.

It’s simple: If the gift you order doesn’t arrive fresh and perfect – if you and your gift recipients aren’t totally delighted – we’ll make it right.

For years the rumors flew: Somewhere in the remote backwaters, up the creeks that feed Florida’s Indian River, there grew a fruit so rare – so sublimely sweet and delicious – that most growers and grove hands would deny its very existence. A fruit so scarce and wonderful to eat, the oldtimers would hoard the entire crop exclusively for their own families and friends.

Today, of course, we know that fruit as the legendary Hale Honeybell: Brilliant, bright orange, bursting with luscious juice and honeyed flavor. Honeybells are a unique cross between the delicately flavored Dancy Tangerine and sweet Duncan Grapefruit. They’re still extremely rare – harvested only in January and, when we’re lucky, another week or two into February. Hurry and order yours today! Now that their secret’s out, they’re in huge demand – and very short supply.
