Valencias, also known as Summer Oranges, are in season from February through October, with peak supplies in May, June and July
Sunkist oranges are shipped in sturdy, standardized paperboard cartons which hold about 40 pounds of fruit. The size designation, printed on every carton, states the number of oranges in the carton and also gives an indication of the size of the individual fruit within that carton. For example, a carton of 88s contains 88 medium-size oranges. A carton of 138s holds 138 small-size oranges, while a carton of 48s contains 48 very large oranges
Keep fresh oranges in a cool, well-ventilated area.
Keep cartons on pallets off the floor for better air circulation.
The best temperature range for citrus storage is 45 to 48 F.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that produce be washed under clean running tap water before eating.
Washing helps remove microorganisms and dirt. Detergent should not be used because it is not labeled for food use.
