citrus harvest
Gathering lemon crops
The gathering of citrus fruits—oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits—from trees when ripe.
Citrus harvest typically occurs in winter months in major growing regions like Florida and California.
The term covers both the activity and the season: The citrus harvest begins in November.
