Robert Is Here keeps the Redland fruit-stand story personal
Robert Is Here grew from a boy's roadside cucumber table into a family fruit stand in the Redland area of South Miami-Dade.
Robert Is Here is one of those South Florida names that sounds made up until you hear the story.
The fruit stand began in 1959. Robert Moehling was sent to sell cucumbers by the road, but drivers kept going. His father then put up a sign that pointed to the boy: “Robert Is Here.” The clear message became the stand’s name.
The small table grew into a family stop for local fruit, tropical fruit, and milkshakes. It has a Homestead mailing address, so it fits easily into a Homestead or Everglades trip. The setting, though, is the Redland farm area of South Miami-Dade. It is a private business, not a city attraction.
Before a stop, check the current hours and what is in season. The fruit follows the farm calendar, which means the best reason to pull in may change from one month to the next.
