In the late 1800's, early Florida settlers began the commercial cultivation of citrus and an industry was born. Indian River Lagoon country, along the Florida middle east coast, proved to be the prime location for growing the finest citrus in the world. This fruit would exclusively carry the envied stamp...Indian River!

The Indian River Citrus Museum tells the story and preservers the artifacts, photographs and memorabilia of the pioneers who established the most distinguished citrus fruit in the world.
