In
the 1940's nursery owner John Hatcher believed he could create a better
mango and left quite a legacy for the rest of us to enjoy! A
large, beautiful, juicy mango, the Hatcher Mango - a unique
variety of tropical splendor.
His youngest son,
Richard and his wife Marilynn have worked and improved the 4 acre
grove over the years which has come to be known as Hatcher's Mango
Hill, located on the western exit of I-95 at Hypoluxo Road in
Lantana, Florida.
Hatcher's Mango
Hill offers mangoes for sale throughout most of the summer months,
usually May through September. The season begins with the Haden
and Zill varieties. The Hatcher mango, now a favorite, is ready in
July and August. They are marketed on site, picked fresh every
morning, seven days a week. Orders may be shipped to friends and
families all over the country.
Specially grafted
Hatcher mango trees are again available and sold at Hatcher's Mango
Hill. More and more people want to have their own Hatcher trees
once they have tasted these delicious beauties.
