“Previously the majority of production was lemon however over the last three years they have diversified in to vegetable lines; butternut sweet potato, celery, fennel and various types of cabbages.”

All of vegetable lines are grown by Cytropic in the Alora area within 15 minutes of the pack house. The Company has a staff of 20 people, between pack house and farm. Two years ago they relocated to a larger packing facility and plan to invest in further cold storage and a larger outdoor pallet and crate storage later next year.
