This heritage began eight generations ago, when William Hazelton planted the first orange trees in Fresno County. With trees over 150 years old, each fruit embodies a legacy of superior taste and unparalleled quality.

Along with the incredible taste of its Heirloom Navels, Kings River offers bagged and bulk options. It also released a 6-count tray, which is environmentally friendly as a 100 percent recyclable package. The packaging is also suited for easy display and grab-and-go convenience for shoppers.
