NATIONAL ORANGE SHOW HISTORY:
It is safe to say that the National Orange Show’s long and storied history is an integral part of San Bernardino’s history. From its development in 1889 to the present day, The National Orange Show has made a major economic and cultural impact on the Inland Empire.
Fruitful Beginnings
Originally a Latin American mutation of a variety from the Iberian Peninsula named for its “belly button” at the blossom end, the Washington Navel Orange was first brought to the area in 1873. The fruit soon became a major catalyst for the development of California’s Citrus Industry. But the story goes back much further…
According to Ingersoll’s Century Annals of San Bernardino County, Anson Van Leuven brought the first orange trees, six in number, to San Bernardino Valley from San Gabriel Valley in 1857. In 1869, Lewis F. Cram was given the opportunity to buy 500 trees, but opted to purchase only enough rootstock to plant 1 ¾ acres. By 1887, he showed a net profit of $1,757 on this meager planting, over $1,100 net per acre–a good fortune in those days. In 1873, the U.S. Department of Agriculture sent California’s two original orange trees to Eliza Tibbets. The tree’s seemingly endless oranges won awards at major expositions for their superior quality and taste. Ms. Tibbets soon had a booming business selling buds from her celebrated stock. By 1910, one year before the National Orange Show began, at least 100,000 acres in California were planted with the progeny of her trees and California navel orange sales had reached $200 million.
Flavorful a-Fairs
Along with the growing industry, a series of citrus fairs were held in the 1880s and 1890s. The world’s first Citrus Fair was staged in Riverside in February of 1879. It was at this fair that the Washington Navel was first exhibited and its superior qualities recognized. The fair was such a success that a second fair followed in February 1880, and a third in March of 1881. The citizens of Riverside were so delighted with the success of the fair that they turned it into an annual event and actually erected a pavilion for the fair of 1882. Annual citrus fairs were held in Riverside, except for one or two that were held in Colton, until 1891. At the same time, similar fairs were being held in Los Angeles and San Bernardino County.
In 1889, the very first “Orange Show” was staged in San Bernardino. This premier show was scheduled to run a week, but the promoters were doubtful as to whether or not the show would last that long. Each day, a brief message appeared in the Courier (the forerunner of San Bernardino’s newspaper, The Sun) urging committee members to obtain exhibitors. When the show opened, fifteen county communities were represented in the citrus exhibits. Other county products also on display included raisins, walnuts, lemons, limes, grapes, apples, and Cucamonga wines and brandies. The show opened with the City of San Bernardino band playing from a Van Dorin Building balcony on Third Street. The event cost $744.25 to produce, with $1,180.25 in revenue. Since financial success was apparent, and the show was so well received by the community, the event was extended to an eleven-day run.
The “Orange Show” went “National” in 1911 with tents pitched at Fourth and “D” Streets in San Bernardino. By that time, the impact of the citrus industry on San Bernardino economics had escalated. For example, the 7,511 orange trees in 1872 had grown to 1,347,911 by 1900; the 15,000 boxes of oranges shipped in 1881 stood at 1,562,108 boxes by 1902-03; and the cash value of the orange crop had grown from $2,450 in 1860 to $1,634,783 in 1900. This introduction provided the setting and circumstances for the genesis of the National Orange Show, which has taken place every year since its inception in 1911, with the exception of four years during World War II.
Growing Tradition
Over the years, the National Orange Show has evolved into one of the Inland Empire’s premier events centers, hosting hundreds of interim events, including concerts, trade shows, and festivals, as well as annual events and year-round attractions. But, the Citrus Fair has remained at the heart of the National Orange Show.
In 1998, after reducing the run of the fair to five days, the content of the fair was restructured to the needs of the surrounding areas. At the realization that some children in the area have never seen a pig or a cow and have no concept of where their food comes from or what their clothes are made of, the National Orange Show developed livestock and agricultural programs that cater to education rather than competition. In addition, the fair stepped away from the industry-wide Schools Involvement Program to create a program that fits the needs of local educators. The National Orange Show’s carnival company offers affordable prices so families can enjoy an economical day at the festival. Above all else, the National Orange Show strives to present an event that is memorable, entertaining, and innovative.
As decades pass and needs and trends change, so will the National Orange Show. But what remains at the heart of the fair will always be commitment to the community, entertainment for the whole family, and a homegrown appreciation of California oranges.
