Some of our Upcoming Activities will be:
2022 Annual Citrus Fruit Sale
This is our primary fundraiser. We bring up the freshest "Grove Stand" quality Citrus Fruit Available. This year's Sale is now in the planning stages. The types of fruit, sizes and prices have not yet been set by our suppliers, as the crops are still on the trees and not ripe for the pickers. What we can tell you, is that we will be holding the sale, Friday, through Sunday, December 2nd through the 4th, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM daily while supplies last. Our location will be at our usual site, in front of the Chick-fil-A and Lowes at the Dulles Crossings Shopping Center. 45440 Dulles Crossing Plz, Sterling, VA 20166).
Since none of the following has yet to be confirmed, we hope to be bringing up Navels, Grapefruit, Tangelos and Clemintines provided the quality of the fruit is as good as in the past. We are counting on using one of "My Guys Moving and Storage" vans as our sale headquarters, but this is all still up in the planning stages.
We thank everyone who purchased our Navel Oranges, Ruby Red Grapefruit and Clenentines in the past, and look forward to their continued support. You helped make this fundraiser a great success.

If you would like a Tax Receipt for your donated eye glasses or hearing aids, please place your items in a Zip Lock® Bag, and add a note stating your desire for a receipt and provide us with your return mailing address or e-mail address before placing your donation in a drop box. A self addressed, stamped envelope would be appreciated, but not required, if we are sending the receipt back via US Mail. Please keep in mind that there may be several weeks or months that will go by before you will get that receipt, as we will not be aware of your donation until the box is serviced, and your donated item(s) is/are unpacked at the recycling center.
