In 1962, Mesa was still considered a small town and the early Mormon settlement of Lehi, just north of Mesa, was a sleepy rural farming area. Art and Anita Freeman, both natives of Mesa, were busy raising seven active children, planting and farming two-hundred acres of citrus in the Lehi Valley.
When the children and the citrus trees were young, the Freemans opened a small roadside stand to sell their fruit and involve their children in the family business.Anita gave the store the name "Orange Patch." People loved the idea of coming to the country to buy fresh citrus and soon the family had to expand the roadside stand.

Dark Chocolate Decadence galore! We popped in yesterday because I read that they had amazing chocolates. Wow, was that an understatement. We got a little selection to try and were ecstatic. The picture doesn't include everything because the dark chocolate peanut butter cup, chocolate toffee and dark orange peel barely made it out of the parking lot. We couldn't wait to sample and were not disappointed. Excellent quality, rich dark chocolate and the best fresh chocolate orange peel I've ever had! Snapped a pic when we got home and have since then devoured the dark chocolate haystack

A very cute and quaint little boutique that sells gourmet food products, Arizona-grown citrus, home decor, accessories and body care products. Some of the grocery items are a little pricey, but generally all the items are of very high quality. Check out the delicious butter dinner rolls and orange rolls near the checkout counter in front, as well as the amazing navel oranges.

I live across the street from the Orange Patch (in the middle of the citrus grove). I go there often and I enjoy meeting and greeting people there because I'm always surprised how many people make it a habit of coming there from all over the country! It's a quaint little boutique with all kinds of goodies from citrus, all kinds of salsa's and mixes, gifts, home Decor and decorations for every holiday! Such a fun place to go to year round!

I grew up surrounded by an orange grove in the small town of Gilbert. I know what good naval oranges taste like. I was in a hurry to buy some oranges for some family that we were going to travel to out of town, so I decided to pick up a couple of bags of oranges from the Orange Patch. Mind you, at $17.50 each bag. When I got home, I opened one of the bags and discovered very old soggy oranges, the kind where the peel sticks and not much taste. They weren't advertised as juicing ones, so they could only be selling very old oranges. They should try to ensure that they are selling only the best

First time visiting this place and they have a lot of fun Christmas decor but customer service was really lacking. Asked the decorator a simple question and she was not friendly at all. She seemed extremely annoyed actually which really bothered me. Totally not kid friendly either. Other than my not so pleasant experience with some of the employees I also had a nice experience with others.

Nice boutique. Costumer service is lacking. I can guess as to several reasons why that might be the case, but I'll just say if you're looking for a nice gift for that hard-to-shop-for person, then this might be the place for you. However, if you're looking for a warm, friendly and welcoming place to shop, keep looking. This place isn't it.

The first time I walked into this quaint boutique I wanted to buy everything! They have such a huge selection of fun and unique items I find myself going back there quite often. Not only do they have the perfect gifts they have seasonal fruit, breads, jams ..... The owners and employees are always helpful and friendly even on their busiest days!

Awesome little store located in the heart of the orange groves on Mckellips rd. This shop carries tons of fun trinkets and great gifts, not to mention a clothes/shoes section in the back and greatly stocked clearance area outside on the patio. Attached to the shop is a smaller one boasting jams, soup mixes, bread mixes, fruit, and way more.
Great spot, will be back soon!

This small boutique is a family owned business. The store is really two separate stores in one. There is one store that has jams, candies, oranges, grapefruit, in the Summer, peaches and tomatoes. There is an ice cream stand too.
The gift store has things you will find nowhere else. It is the holiday season and it is beautifully decorated for Christmas with trees everywhere. You have to scope out the store and take a second lap to be sure you did not miss something. I never leave without buying something.
Don't miss this jewel. You will love it!!

I really like this boutique. They always have some really neat home decor items and nick nacky type things. Whenever I need a little something to give as a gift, I hit this place up. But the REAL treat is the OJ that they sell on site.....W.O.W. This stuff is to die for. My grandparents were visiting from FL (they place they claim with the BEST OJ) after trying a cup, he had to admit it was some of the best he had ever tried.
My kids enjoy the may little candies they sell there, multi colored chocolate malt balls, salt water taffy, ice cream and my personal fave - chocolates. The sea salted

Great place for holiday decor. Went after having lunch with my girlfriend in the area and from the front you wouldn't really think much of it. Pretty big store once you get inside loaded with lots of Halloween and great Christmas decor. A bit of a drive for most but a great place to get some decorative stuff. Didn't have a lot of furniture but that might be a seasonal thing.
