🍊 Citrus season is still rolling in California! These Gold Nugget mandarins from the Ojai Valley near Santa Barbara are simply fantastic! At Ojai Matilija Ranch, each piece of fruit is hand-selected at the height of its ripeness and flavor, and any damaged fruit is removed immediately. These seedless mandarins are only available through the months of April and May, so grab them while they’re still here!
