The main responsibility of the grove department is the routine maintenance of all citrus groves (see link for GIS Maps) in the Citrus Research and Education Foundation. The grove department may have time to assist with research projects on station or for research or maintenance of off-station sites. Grove department equipment may also be available for such occasions. 

Grove Committee 

The Grove Committee consists of CREC faculty members. The committee serves to liase between all faculty members and the grove manager, and assists with strategic planning. Allocation of grove space for research is also determined by the committee.
