Honeybell Wreath

In London, the New Year has long been announced by church bells ringing out at midnight, bidding the last year farewell and welcoming the coming twelve months. We can’t think of a more cheerful way to ring in the New Year than with our Honeybell Wreath. In this gorgeous arrangement, you’ll find 19 pounds of Honeybells, aptly named for their mouth-watering flavor and bell-like shape and nicely topped with a 4-ounce bag of orange pecans. Order early – these citrus chimes ring through January only. CLICK HERE TO ORDER AND PUT IN THE PROMO CODE: “DAILY” FOR 10% OFF YOUR GIFT PURCHASE! http://www.sunharvestcitrus.com/

Navel Oranges

The Navel, our only variety bold enough to bare its midriff, is justifiably confident. A world favorite, theFlorida navel orange is easy to peel and seedless, contains an incredible sweetness coupled with just the right amount of tang, and offers a day’s dose of vitamin C. Its natural goodness and packaging make it a healthful grab ‘n’ go snack. Citrus trivia side note: the Navel’s “inny” is actually caused by a baby orange within the fruit. Now how cute is that?

Honeybell Tangelos

The Honeybell’s name comes from its flavor, form, and family tree. Its nectarous taste and unique bell shape give it its first name, while its ancestors — the tangerine and pomelo (A.K.A. grapefruit) merge to form its last. More specifically, the Honeybell descends from the Dancy tangerine and the Duncangrapefruit. The result is an incredibly easy-to-peel fruit with savory sweetness. Like all good things, however, the Honeybell season comes to an end — and quickly. Available in January only, so order now!

“Sanibel Turtle Garden,” an acrylic on wood painting by artist Teri Causey, has been selected as the poster image for the Annual Sanibel Masters Art Festival, which will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on FRIDAY Nov. 25 and SATURDAY the 26th at the Sanibel Community House. The festival features 75 terrific artists. The proceeds from the event benefit the programs at the Sanibel Community House and BIG ARTS, a home for all the arts.  Admission is free, but donations are accepted at the gates. As a special treat, the BIG ARTS Chorus will perform a preview of their holiday concert at 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 26.  For more information, visit boulderbrookproductions.net or facebook.com/boulderbrookart.

Regarding this years poster art: The festival hs used a similar type of underwater sea turtle image for the past three years, and this year when we saw the vibrant colors of Teri’s painting, we immediately selected it. The color palette of the painting offered us a chance to freshen up the design. The new colors are so varied from the past that it allowed us to create a similar poster but something that really looks new and fresh. Sanibel Island has a fondness for turtles and we like to keep the poster for this event from changing too much, so that it is recognizable each year.  Many guests have started a Sanibel Masters Art Festival poster collection. Signed posters will be available for the first 50 visitors to Teri’s booth.
