Update for the 2024-2025 Season
We are happy to be entering our second season as the owners of S and J Mandarin Grove. We hope to continue the wonderful tradition of growing delicious and organic mandarins in the beautiful foothills of Placer County.
This year we are also welcoming a new addition to our family, baby Luke! Thank you for your patience as we adjust to caring for a newborn at the beginning of harvest season!
We will be opening our website for online ordering with a limited number of mandarins available. We may be able to make more inventory available if we have enough fruit. For large orders or special requests, please contact us at info@sandjmandarins.com.

Ordering
When you place an order for a box of mandarins, you are ordering our popular Owari Satsuma Mandarins unless otherwise specified. Your ordering options are based on the week of shipment. When you select a week, that means your box of mandarins will go out sometime during that week. We ship as close to the beginning of the week as possible but be aware that your order may go out anytime that week.
We recommend that you update your shipping addresses prior to beginning your order.
Our system allows you to pre-order mandarins for the entire holiday season at one time. You may choose to receive one box for yourself right away, ship another on Thanksgiving week, and ship gifts of mandarins to two more people before Christmas. We sell out of all of our shipping dates quickly, so don’t wait until the week you want the mandarins to place your order!
Shipping
All mandarin orders are double boxed in our beautiful gift boxes and shipped inside medium flat rate boxes by Priority Mail through the U.S. Postal Service for speedy delivery at a great price (total cost = $55.00 including shipping). It only takes 2-3 days!
We include a gift card and our brochure in each box. Please include complete/correct shipping instructions and your special greeting for all gifts. Be sure to use an address that the U.S. Postal Service ships to.
We can’t give the exact number of mandarins or the weight because fruit sizes and water content vary, but we use Priority Mail Flat Rate boxes and pack them as full as we can!
We accept all major credit cards through our secure online ordering system. We will make every effort to ship your mandarins during the week selected, but we cannot promise that your order will go out on any particular day. You will receive an email notification when your order has been shipped.
Refunds
When you place your order, your card will be authorized, but it will not be charged until we are ready to ship.
As we are shipping consumable produce, we cannot offer refunds if you change your mind. Most of our customers are thrilled with the condition of their fresh, ripe mandarins on arrival. However, if you encounter a problem with your shipment, please contact us and we’ll do what we can to make it right.
