2008 -- Pete and Cindy Win Award for Environmentally Responsible Citrus Growing Practices
We were honored to receive the Farm Bureau County Alliance for Responsible Environmental Stewardship (CARES) Award this year for our citrus growing practices. While we choose to grow our fruit in a sustainable, environmentally responsible manner because we believe it's the right thing to do, it's always nice to be honored for our efforts.
“We feel that it is extremely important to recognize these growers for taking the time and effort to implement practices that are environmentally friendly," said John Hoblick, president of Florida Farm Bureau. “We see their operations as examples of the steps that Florida's farmers and ranchers are taking to produce safe, affordable and abundant food while being good stewards of the environment."
Last year Pete and Cindy also received the Outstanding Conservationist of the Year Award from the St. Lucie Soil and Water Conservation District in recognition for leadership in sustainable agricultural practices. Part of The Orange Shop's promise to our customers is that we are committed to environmental responsibility. While many industries are just now adopting "Green" practices, we have used them for many years. We're sincere in our commitment to protecting Florida's unique environment while growing the world's finest citrus fruit.
