Pearson Ranch News
We spent a very busy summer and fall farming. We put an extraordinary amount of work into shaping our trees. The groves are pristine and the trees and their fruit – exceptional. We welcome visits to our ranch from all of our customers.
We are starting the shipping season with our Love Oranges
This is our fabulous Fancy box packed under the strict grade set by our staff. (Also available in Choice.) As the song says, "All you need is Love…"
  
Pearson Ranch Premium fruit will be available
All Pearson Ranch Premium fruit is double graded in our specialty packing facility in the Pearson Ranch Agribusiness Center in Porterville, California.
 
Industry Update
Throughout the San Joaquin Valley, due to El Niño, the crop is smaller by about 20% and the fruit is smaller by at least one size with a general peak on 113’s. During December, the industry expects only 20% of the fruit will be 72’s. The fruit is also coming into sugar in an unusual fashion – with smaller fruit sometimes testing before larger and irregular testing throughout the Valley.
   
Working with Nature
The folks at Pearson Ranch promise to reach for the high mark we’ve set for our customers. We will give you regular updates on the crop and weather. We offer innovative marketing ideas. In the Pearson Ranch family, the name makes all the difference!
