HARVEST SHARE Fruit Box. From Field to Heart, Starting November
Harvest share for fresh fruit: seasonal boxes from community-supported agriculture – delivered to You, carried by a Europe-wide community.
Mixed box »Citrus Grove«
A box contains a seasonal mix of oranges, mandarins, lemons, and grapefruits. Depending on the month, the composition changes – always freshly harvested and hand-packed. Stored cool and dark, the fruits keep for up to two months.
All citrus fruits are harvested by hand, left completely untreated, and not waxed or post-processed – their peel is edible and perfect for zest, tea, or candying. If you notice spots on the peel, this is zeolite – a natural volcanic mineral used in natural farming to protect the skin against fungal growth. It is entirely safe and can simply be washed off.
The fruits come from the Anyfion cooperative in Nafplio (Peloponnese), where more than 200 families cultivate citrus groves organically and regeneratively. Mixed planting with olives, herbs, and cover crops maintains soil fertility and biodiversity.
This way, each Citrus Grove box brings you variety, freshness, and the true taste of Mediterranean winters.
This product is only available for community deliveries.

Fruit Box Harvest Shareper year
»Citrus Grove« – Citrus Variety from Solidarity-Based Farming
»Citrus Grove« is our classic citrus box. The fruits come from the region around Nafplio in the eastern Peloponnese and are harvested by hand with great care – only when they’ve reached full ripeness and their characteristic flavour.
The citrus trees grow in small-scale, carefully maintained orchards, sometimes in mixed cultures and managed using regenerative farming methods. The farms work in harmony with nature, avoiding synthetic chemical pesticides or mineral fertilisers.
Instead, they use compost, intercropping, and proven traditional knowledge combined with up-to-date scientific insight.
The fruits – including oranges, lemons, mandarins, grapefruits, and blood oranges – are harvested in small batches, sorted, and packed directly into shipping-ready boxes. Through a directly organised delivery structure, they reach TEIKEI pick-up points without intermediaries or unnecessary storage.
With »Citrus Grove«, You not only receive a delicious, untreated fruit box – You also support a solidarity-based structure that ensures secure purchase volumes, fair payment, and regional processing pathways.

Citrus peels can be dried or frozen and later grated into cakes, dressings, or marinades. This way the whole fruit is used – not only the juice.
All citrus fruits in the »Sonnenstrahl« harvest share come from the organic cooperative Anyfion, founded in 2002 and supported by more than 200 families today. The farms are located in the plains and hills around Nafplio, between 10–500 m altitude. Oranges, mandarins, lemons, and blood oranges are grown in mixed orchards. Anyfion strictly follows organic standards, avoiding synthetic inputs and relying on compost, crop rotation, and biodiverse companion plants. Every box is fully traceable back to the farms – ensuring transparency, fair prices, and stable farm incomes.
Our fruits are harvested only after Your order and at perfect ripeness. They are then packed fresh, untreated, and cleaned only with water directly into the carton boxes – ready for You to pick up at the collection points just a few days later.
