Under the mantra “bigger, better, more diverse” the Christian Valley Mango Festival 2010 committee has mobilized its promotional machinery at the global level.

Christian Valley Mango Festival is being promoting the festival, in the United Kingdom, United States and regionally.

Christian Valley Today

More than 180 metric tonne of tropical fruits was imported in 1999, and so Christian Valley’s job of improving local production to meet demand is far from complete.  Additionally, the station propagates ornamentals, flowers and a lot of different types of plants in its nursery.  Additionally seedlings, plants and fruits can be purchased at very affordable prices at Christian Valley.

Christian Valley Station, The Pearl of the South
Hidden away in the forested folds of the Shekerly Mountain Range of southern Antigua, Christian Valley Station is the country’s premiere collection of mature fruit tree varieties.

Here, the average rainfall of more than 50 inches per annum is twenty percent higher than the national average, lies a 40 acre orchard of mango, citrus fruits, avocado, guava, Malay apple, cashew, breadfruit, sour sop, and many curious tropical fruits.
