STEWARDSHIP
All American Citrus Foundation
The Grove at All American Citrus is proudly home to the All American Citrus Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving Southern California's citrus heritage while creating opportunities for education, community, and inclusion.
The estate is home to more than 500 organic Shasta Gold mandarin trees, part of one of the region’s remaining living citrus landscapes. Maintaining the orchard requires year-round stewardship, care, and community support.
Every stay helps support the continued care of the grove, ensuring this unique landscape can be enjoyed for generations to come.
About
The Foundation was created by Trish and her late husband, Marty, with two guiding goals: preserving Southern California's citrus heritage and creating meaningful opportunities that celebrate the strengths and abilities of individuals with autism.
Inspired by their autistic son, the foundation reflects a belief that community, purpose, and hands-on work in nature can create powerful opportunities for connection and growth.
Following Marty's passing, the Foundation continues to honor that shared vision through stewardship of the grove, community partnerships, and experiences that bring people together.
The Mission
The All American Citrus Foundation believes that every person—and every grove—has the opportunity to grow and thrive when given the care, support, and opportunity to flourish.
Inspired by autism advocacy, agricultural stewardship, and community service, the Foundation works to preserve Southern California's citrus heritage while creating meaningful opportunities for education, inclusion, and connection.
The All American Citrus Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Autism Inspired
Our Mission is to break the cultural stigma about the capabilities of people with Autism. Just like the fruit grown in nature, people are not defined by perfection — only by the opportunity they are given to grow and thrive. Similarly, remember, it's just different, not less.
A Living Orchard
For many years, Trish and Marty personally maintained the grove and managed its operations as a family — harvesting fruit and distributing shipments across all 48 states.
After Marty’s passing, sustaining the orchard became both a challenge and a mission. Today, the orchard continues through the suppor of volunteers, community partnerships, and and the proceeds generated through estate stays and Foundation fundraising efforts help fund the ongoing care of the land.
Community Support
Preserving a living orchard is a year-round commitment.
Every estate stay, Foundation partnership, volunteer effort, and donation helps sustain one of Southern California's remaining private citrus groves while supporting a mission rooted in education, inclusion, and community.
Thank you for helping The Grove continue to grow.
