Here's some news to feel good about ... While temperatures are still cold in many parts of the country, the California orange season is heating up. This year's crop is exceptionally sweet and juicy thanks to the warm days, cool nights and rich soil unique to the west coast - add the California sunshine with the expert touch of generations of growers, like Mike George of Lindsay, California and you've got the best tasting oranges of the year. "My family has been farming in California for three generations. In fact as a kid, I used to watch the navel oranges being picked in the winter and shipped across the nation. Now that I'm a grower, it's my turn to share a taste of California with the rest of the country." Unlike some vitamins, Vitamin C cannot be stored by the body, so it's important to replenish regularly. Just one California navel orange provides 130 percent of the daily value of Vitamin C. For delicious taste and nutritional goodness, add California oranges to your lifestyle this season.
