Remember old-school Florida? It’s still alive at Sunsational Farms in Umatilla. The farming’s all modern, including hydroponic veggies. But the vibe is classic Florida Old School.
Two generational Florida citrus families banded together to create a place for family fun that harks back to days gone by. Sure people come for the best-ever fresh-squeezed juice, they come to take home fresh fruit and veggies — but mostly they come just to pass away a pleasant day, from the kids on the playground to the families enjoying a bite to eat in the shade.
Even though it sounds old-school, it’s actually part of farming’s modern wave of agritourism. When farming alone won’t pay the bills, farmers get creative.
