Description

Yes it is. We are located about one and a half hours southwest of Orlando. Frostproof got its name back in the early 1800's when cowboys used to drive their cattle into this area because the grass was always green. They called it the "frostproof area". Then the area experienced a very devastating freeze. Because Frostproof is located between two lakes, most of the growers in this area were

able to save their trees due to the warm air coming off the lakes. The area had been known at the Fort Clinch area because of a fort that had been there during the Indian wars. When it came time to officially naming the town there was a bit of a dispute amongst the town elders. See how the town got named Frostproof by clicking here.

Well in recent years, the last one being 1989, the area did experience devastating freezes. Many of the older trees were destroyed but a good percentage did survive. Some townspeople now call us "Almost Frostproof"!
