Like any good lemon, these lovely California lemons are sour and tasty - great for lemon meringue pies, lemon breads, and lemonade. 

Our lemons are grown organically so you can feel good about using the flavorful rind in your favorite lemony recipes. 

Seeds?

lemons have a small number of seeds.

How much juice out of how many lemons?

You should get about 15 quarts of lemon juice out of a full bushel of lemons, more or less, depending on how hard you press the lemons. A full bushel of lemons is about 50 lbs.

Fresh squeezed lemon juice can be frozen or canned, or refrigerate fresh lemon juice for up to 2 days.




Three Cool Ways To Use Lemons




Three Cool Ways To Use Lemons

Frozen Lemon Cubes:  Lemons are in their peak season in the winter, but nobody wants an ice cold glass of lemonade then. So when we get a box or two of lemons for our family, we love to freeze the juice in ice cube trays and save the cubes in zip top bags until the weather gets warm. When you’re ready for that cold glass of lemonade, plunk 2 or 3 lemon cubes into a glass, add water and the sweetener of your choice. You can even whiz this in the blender for a slushy treat.


Frozen Lemon Peel:  Isn’t it true that just as soon as you use up your last lemon and throw away the peel, the dinner you make the VERY NEXT NIGHT calls for a teaspoon of lemon zest?? Seriously, this used to happen to me all the time. Grr…


But not anymore. Now, I stack up my empty lemon peel halves when I’m done juicing them, pop them into zip top bags, and chuck them in the freezer. How simple is that? It’s easy to zest the frozen peel on a hand held grater if you do it relatively quickly, before the rind thaws and gets mushy. And I don’t have to be careful about saving the last lemon anymore.


Problem solved.
