I just received a phone call from my friends that they received a gift package I ordered for them just the other day. I sent them Honey Tangerines, from Sun Harvest Citrus and they loved them! My friends live in New York and the weather is still pretty cold, so I thought it would be a fun surprise to send them some fresh Florida Honey Tangerines (these Tangerines are soooo good and are only in season for Feb. and Mar.).
