Did you know that California is the powerhouse behind nearly all of the U.S. supply of canned and plastic-packaged peaches? Plus, our state produces over half of all frozen cling and freestone peaches in the country!
 
California’s Central Valley, stretching from just north of Sacramento to three hours south, is home to nearly 14,000 acres of peach orchards. Our peaches are processed by three plants for canned and plastic-packaged products, and by two more for frozen delights.
 
Check out our Peach Page and celebrate with us by enjoying some delicious California peaches this month! 🍑🌞

Now they face environmental challenges far greater than flood, drought, and pestilence. In addition, they must contend with volatile market conditions that were inconceivable to their ancestors. But as new agricultural trends and technologies emerge and evolve, so do new funding solutions. Could this be the ideal time for agribusiness to innovate and create sustainable growth?
