Kick Off The New Year With Citrus From Cecelia Packing

Orange Cove, CA – Cecelia Packing is gearing up for their Sky Valley Heirloom Navel season!  The limited offering of these premium navels will begin shipping in January and continue to early April.

Packaged under the Sky Valley brand and in their distinctive blue and orange 4 lb. bag, these premium heirloom navels have become synonymous with great flavor.  Our Sky Valley Heirloom Navels come from a single ranch developed in the 1930s.  Grown in the shadow of Smith Mountain near Orange Cove, CA the Sky Valley Navel delivers extraordinary flavor week after week during their season.

“We are anticipating an excellent crop to jump start the New Year,” states Randy Jacobson, Sales Manager for Cecelia Packing.  “As we get closer to January, the sugar and acid levels in the fruit begin to rise creating the distinctive, “incredibly orange” flavor that Sky Valley is famous for.”

Can’t wait until January?  Cecelia Packing is now shipping Cara Caras through April.   Picked at the peak of flavor insures they have great taste and color.  Cara Caras are high in Lycopene, a natural pigment with antioxidant qualities, which explains their signature pink interiors.  Cara Caras are packed and shipped under the Cecelia label in full and half cartons and are available in 3, 5, and 8 lb. bags.

New Brix Sensor

Cecelia Packing has also installed a new brix sensor to their packing equipment.  The new technology will allow for greater quality control on their citrus products.  The sensor can detect internal parameters of quality such as sugar content, dryness, and internal physiological defects.
