Underground Orange Grove

"Impossible!" you say. But some of the trees have been there for over 90 years.

Smack in the middle of Fresno (which is about 1/4 mile from the far end of Fresno) is an underground orange grove. I know because I saw the sign and the chain link fence that goes around it.  Proof is below.



I'll say there were wet conditions!  I drove through them in order to get here.

Now if I had been able to take a tour, this is where it would have started. I could see that at the end of the path you descended into the grove.

  1. I bet it smells good down there during the spring when the orange blossoms are blooming. My favorite aroma!

  2. The Central Valley heat forced them under ground.
