A communal vision produces a variety of lemons for one Arizona farm community.
Greek mythology paints lemons as a symbol of wealth and love. It was believed that tucking dried lemon leaves under a pillow at night would translate to sweet dreams.
“I saw the writing on the wall,” says Johnston, who kicked off the execution of what was originally called “The Farm at Agritopia” in the late 90s. “I could see houses on the horizon. We could sell or we could be proactive and create a place that would also allow us to continue our stewardship of the land.”
Kelly Saxer, Agritopia’s lead farmer, counts Lisbon, Meyer and Ponderosa lemons among her crops, each with its own unique appearance and flavor. For those who live in colder climates, citrus season offers a bit of colorful reprieve. Citrus harvest begins in December and extends through the end of February.
