I just ordered another box of navels. I honestly don't know what I am going to do in the next nine months without a quality orange. :-(

Dear
Friends,
I am often asked for an alternative to cow's milk. Here's a
treat that is the sweetest, vitamin-filled gift of
nature
that I've ever found, and ounce for ounce contains more calcium than human breast milk!
*
I've got a secret,
and I shouldn't tell, because it will ruin things a bit for me, but what the
heck. We're friends, right? Promise to keep
this between us!
Last year, I found a source for the
best oranges grown on this planet. Trouble is, it's an extremely tiny farm in
the heart of Florida's citrus growing area, and within hours of posting
this column, the entire crop will be sold out! I've already ordered and paid for
my cases. I recommend that you go for the satsumas and navels!
I know the farmer, Dave Fedor.
Sports fans might recognize that name. Dave once played professional basketball
with Wilt Chamberlain. He now has two jobs. Dave's a high school teacher and an orange grower.
When you purchase
oranges from your supermarkets, you're getting under-ripe fruit that's often
been gassed to give them an artificially ripe appearance. All of Dave's
fruit naturally ripens on his trees, and the fruit is shipped directly to
you soon after it's picked.
Dave
uses no pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers on his crops. To him,
that would be the worst kind of offensive foul. Dave uses just
certified organic methods.
Jason's Argonauts risked
their lives searching for the golden fleece and golden apples. Many historians
believe that those apples were actually oranges. These oranges are truly a gift
from the gods. There is no better treat in all of nature than the moments after
UPS delivers a box of those satsumas. I'll devour two or three in the process of
bringing that box into my kitchen. Like a Pavlovian canine, I salivate at the
imagery of my first taste of this season's miracle
fruit.
*According to USDA, 100 grams of
human breast milk contain 33 milligrams of calcium. The same sized portion of
Florida oranges contains
40 milligrams of calcium.
Tell
Dave that the NOTMILKMAN sent you!

I know you get tons of mail praising your product, so I'll just add my voice to it. I just received my shipment of satsumas and navels yesterday and I can't believe how good they are! Since I've already gone through almost half of the fruit, I can see there's no danger of it spoiling - which had been my worry. I've never ordered a full box of citrus before, but I'll definitely be ready to do so again next year.

The shipment arrived yesterday, Thursday, in beautiful condition. They are superb oranges! But I imagine you already knew that!
Thank you very much,

Hi there Orange Growers I am writing to thank you for The Most Delicious Oranges and Tangerines I have ever eaten. I am enjoying the heck out of sharing your real sweetness with my students and friends who happen by my house.

My 1st shipment of your oranges arrived yesterday. The oranges are sweet, juicy, and absolutely fabulous. We intend to order several more boxes. Your oranges are the best we've ever tasted. It is so nice having organic produce. The taste and nutrition are superior to non-organic, chemically ripened fruit. Another bonus is we can even save the rind to grate for seasoning in some dishes. Thanks.
