Florida Citrus Center Inc # 30

These places advertise live baby gators in store. What happens to all the baby gators when they grow up? There are gator heads for sale inside and they look to be teen gator heads do they kill them when they are too big? It seems very cruel I would recommend avoiding.

Don’t bother stopping! The signs on the freeway and outside the building all advertise the fresh squeezed OJ. Once inside the sign on the cooler states «no juice until fall!» The OJ stand does not carry the product. Shameful!

There are a ton of Florida Citrus Centers along I-​75 but I have always been partial to only 2 of them. Anytime I am visiting family in Gainesville I always find myself en route to Orlando to enjoy some type of theme park getaway. On the way back up I always stop at one of these centers to enjoy some fresh squeezed orange juice and look at the alligators. Some of the best OJ I have ever had in my entire life and I guess it’s the simple things that make me enjoy my yearly Florida trips even more.
I cannot wait to go back and see what they have to offer this summer!

We just stopped here to get gas go to the bathroom and get oranges. I would’ve rated to place a 5 except the bathroom is a little dirty.
The gas was reasonably priced and the oranges are in incredible value.
Stop and get oranges!!!

Not baby gators. Regular baby caiman not native to Florida. Really expensive. Definitely a tourist trap. But convenient, off the interstate.

Total ripoff, fruit bad #2 and #3 fruit

A cheesy roadside stand that’s advertised heavily on I-​75.
The knickknacks & gifts aren’t super over priced, but a lot of them are just your typical Florida souvenir you can find in just about every store in the state.
What I stopped for was some oranges!
Had a sliver of each kind which helped me decide which one to buy.
Temple oranges were my choice. It was $ 9.99 for a large bag. I ate one today and they are delicious!
Anyway, I’m not sure if you can find them cheaper if your willing to drive around back roads but for a I-​75 road tripper heading home wanting a last minute stop for some Florida oranges, this worked out just fine.
Oh & bathrooms were clean so make sure to go before heading out on the road.
