Orange Lake Overlook T-Shirt

from $25.00

Available in XS-2XL unisex sizes.

Located just south of McIntosh, FL on U.S. 441, Orange Lake Overlook (OLO) dates back to the 16th Century when it was utilized by the Timucua Indians for the village of Potano. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries it became part of Florida’s prestigious agricultural scene. The entire 300-acre hill was planted with citrus, and in the 1950s, the little buildings and mill on top of the hill became the Ollie Huff Citrus Shop and packing house. The groves suffered a setback in 1983 from a hard freeze and were re-planted only to be decimated by a second hard freeze in 1984. Following Buddy’s death in 1984, the Huff family left the citrus business and leased the land for cattle grazing. With the threat of residential development of the land, the local community rallied to save the overlook, supporting efforts by Alachua Conservation Trust to purchase 71-acres of land and the remaining structures.
