DESCRIPTION
Mixon Fruit Farms is more than just a Fruit Stand. The pavilion is a great location for, not only weddings, but company parties, reunions, baby dedications, Quince, Bar Mitzvah and Proms. The neat thing is that we have live web cameras and events can be watched by friends and family all over the world. The pavilion events get the use of all the garden areas and over 300 parking spots. In the evening you feel like you’re in Hawaii with the pond, waterfall, tropical gardens and twinkling lights.

Mixon Fruit Farms is more than just a Fruit StandJanet and Dean Mixon always refer to the Garden Oasis as part of prayer. Mixon’s has been in business since 1939 and is well known for its delicious fruit and of course its Orange Swirl Ice Cream. “Christmas is a really busy time for us” says Dean Mixon. “We ship our citrus all over the country”. In 2006 Janet and Dean Mixon bought out the family and decided to diversify the farm. “We want Mixon’s to be a place where memories are made” explained Janet Mixon. The pavilion is a great location for, not only weddings, but company parties, reunions, baby dedications, Quince, Bar Mitzvah and Proms. The neat thing is that we have live web cameras and events can be watched by friends and family all over the world. The pavilion events get the use of all the garden areas and over 300 parking spots. In the evening you feel like you’re in Hawaii with the pond, waterfall, tropical gardens and twinkling lights.

Barbara & Chris
Our wedding at Mixon’s in the Grove was just amazing. The setting was beautiful and the staff was so helpful. The waterfall and koi pond made for some amazing pictures for us on such a special day. Even the photographer told us that it was his first time there and that it was a prime location. He said it’s one of the prettiest places he’s ever shot a wedding at. Thank you again for making such a memorable day, a wonderful one. Lisa & Jonathan
Best place EVER for special occasions! The garden oasis was the perfect place for our wedding. It even rained and the day was not ruined by it. Having moved our wedding inside to the pavilion made it surprisinglyeven better!!!!

20 Passenger Limo Bus • 6 & 10 Passenger Limosalso available - Lincoln Towncars & 7 Passenger SUV

Change to Full page adI like it! Two questions, on the exterior photo of the limo is it possible to clip some off the top of the picture to lose the buildings showing above the car? On the interior photo of the six passenger showing the back seat is it possible to darken the windows so you can't see out to the exterior scene? Possibly when the ad is reduced to the half page size it won't be obvious. I want to show the copy to other members of our staff before giving the go-ahead if you don't mind. Also I'm going to talk to Janet about possibly increasing to a full page. I'll let you know!
Could you add a line under the line stating 'bus & 6 & 10 psgr limo' - 'also available - Lincoln Towncars, 7 psgr SUV for all FL
airports & cruiseports service'. Families & guests may need that type of transportation also. With more room we can add it. Type size can be smaller and color/font can be different. Your call!
