The mandarin season begins again

By GAIA Redaktion 29 September 2020 Updated on 1 October 2020

We are opening our online shop for the 2020–21 season with the Clemenrubí mandarin.

The first shipment goes out next Monday, 5 October. If you like, you can already place your order. The Clemenrubí mandarin is easy to peel and tastes delicious.

ORDER MANDARINS

The first conventional oranges will arrive at the beginning of November, with the Navelina, the queen of juice. This year the harvest is starting a little earlier than usual.

For our organic citrus fruit, we plan to start with the organic Clemenules mandarin around mid-November and to add the organic Navelina orange towards the end of the same month.

We will also keep last season’s prices, and as a customer you will notice a 2% reduction for the end consumer, owing to the VAT cut by the German government.

After the positive experience at the end of last season, we are ready again and face the challenges of keeping our team safe from Covid-19 with a clear conscience. We now know more than ever that our work matters – just as vitamin C and the pleasure of eating fresh, good-quality citrus fruit matter to our customers.

Encourage your friends to register too, so that this year they will again be among the first to stock up on vitamins in autumn:

Orangen frisch nach Hause

Joint ordering through (supra-)regional supply

On a voluntary basis, we are building alternatives to the existing corporate and industrial supply chain:

Get in touch

People in a region join forces, record their needs for goods and services (monthly, for example) and agree their requirements with ethically operating producers, traders and service providers, with call-offs that are as even as possible and optimised for transport.

We then order for many people on a single customer account and have the orders delivered directly to you or to the regions, where they are distributed further. This means less work for the supplier, who has only one customer account to manage and fewer invoices, but a larger order volume. In the regions, people come together, talk to each other again and, by pooling small separate orders, also enjoy better prices per kilo (for example with 20 kg packs).

In the 2022/2023 season we ordered a tonne of citrus fruit from “Orangen frisch nach Hause” in this way and were rewarded at the end of the season with a 5% discount on all orders.

Individual orders from Valencia

Exact availability, prices, varieties and shipping information can be found in the product overview. As part of the (supra-)regional supply project we can offer the prices direct from the plantation at a slight discount, with no delay and direct delivery to you.

Product overview

For years we have pointed to direct shipping from Ruth Palomero’s plantation in València, Spain. Depending on the season, you can order oranges, tomatoes, lemons, mandarins or avocados there directly from the plantation by parcel service, without intermediaries. It hardly gets fresher or more convenient. We have no financial interest in orders; we simply like to recommend it.
