Hollieanna Groves Will Not Open Maitland Store This Year
Residents look forward to this seasonal store from November - April each year.
Hollieanna Groves, the cherished citrus grove and retail icon in Central Florida, recently announced that it won’t be opening its doors in Maitland this season. For decades, the grove has provided locals and visitors alike with some of the freshest oranges, grapefruits, and other citrus fruits, becoming a beloved stop for holiday gifts and seasonal treats.
In a brief statement, the family-owned business cited various challenges as reasons for the temporary closure, including agricultural difficulties that have impacted the citrus industry statewide. However, they assured customers that this is a pause and not the end for the iconic business. Long-time fans expressed disappointment but were quick to show support, with many pledging to return when the store reopens in future seasons. You can still order from their website, by phone or by mail.
As Florida’s citrus landscape continues to adapt, many are hopeful that Hollieanna Groves will be back, bringing a little taste of old Florida to the community once again.
