Lockhart is part of Orange County’s rich citrus history. Orange County was named in 1845 in honor of the abundant fruit that grew this region’s economy. Disney World opened its doors in the early 1970s and tourism quickly became a major economic force in Orange County. The late 1980s brought several winters of severe freezing temperatures that devastated citrus production. While fresh Florida oranges can still be found on orange trees throughout Orange County, many groves have now been replaced with new residential developments to support this high-growth area.
