Omg, this place is awesome if you're looking for fresh fruits and vegetables, the owner, Mr. Juan is a very hospitable and very generous man. He has cold, freshly cut samples of fruits and veggies. He will give you a sample right then and there on the spot so you won't second guess your choice. Most of the time, you will get hooked and buy it. I go during this season. We are October- May is Orange season, but the oranges I personally prefer are called the OrangePinapple. I know what?? Yes, I got hooked when Mr. JUAN gave me a sample and always came on that season because they are not yearly this type of orange. May I also recommend the HONEY PINAPPLE? Yes, that is omg super sweet, not your typical pineapple. It's a very different taste, and you will enjoy it. You won't be disappointed at this fruit stand it is the last fruit stand leaving the valley on the right-hand side. If coming from the south to north would be the first stand to your left. JUANS FRUIT STAND. There are very reasonable prices and just great nice nacks and ceramics he has, but my thing is the fruits. Go buy, you won't regret it. The nice part about it is he has some refrigerated and tastes even better than hot. Yummo, so thank you, Mr. Juan, for your samples, I posted a pic of the owner with citrus samples pinappleoranges, grapefruits lemons......

With that said, we were greeted with cold fruit samples. Pineapple orange was juicy and sweet, and it's a little early in the orange season. Bought a bag of rio red grapefruit which was perfectly tart. Will use both for juice.
Artisenal pottery was over priced, but if you're not going to Mexico or closer to the border towns, their pottery is very nice and probably priced accordingly.
The reason we bought here is because they accept cards and their pineapple orange was delicious! I almost left the valley empty-handed and felt utterly disappointed, but I'm glad this fruit stand exists. Also, I wouldnt buy fruit any further north than this guy's stand as the temperature and quality is varied...
Read moreWe stopped by Juan’s Fruit Stand on our way through Raymondville, and it was honestly one of the highlights of the trip. Juan himself was super friendly and welcoming — the kind of person who makes you feel like a regular even if it’s your first time there.
He gave us samples of mango, pineapple, and a few different kinds of oranges, and everything was incredibly fresh and sweet. You can tell he takes pride in what he’s offering.
We ended up buying some mangos (which were amazing) and a beautiful Mexican-designed pot that caught our eye. The place has a lot more than just fruit — it’s full of charm, personality, and real hospitality.
If you’re ever passing through the area, this place is a must-stop. Great produce, great people, and a great...
