Nokomis Groves Editor’s Pick
Perry and Annie Lee Hayes founded Nokomis Groves back in 1948, growing and shipping citrus across the country. Locals and tourists visit not only to pick up some citrus but to savor the orange ice cream, made from fresh Florida oranges. We can’t resist the orange-vanilla combo: a towering swirl of bright, creamy vanilla and orange soft-serve. Order at the green-painted window—cash only!—and enjoy your sweet treat on the patio. And even though citrus is out of season, the ice cream shop is open all summer long, seven days a week.
