This summer, we discovered the vital role honey bees play in avocado production. Our first hive has taught us the importance of pollinators—and the care they require.

Proper pruning lets sunlight reach every branch and fruit. By carefully tending our trees, we aim to improve yields and make harvesting easier in the years ahead.

November brought devastating fires and strong winds that damaged our orchard. Despite the losses, we’re working to salvage what we can and stay optimistic for the future.

After decades away, we returned to the ranch my grandparents built, ready for a new adventure among avocado and lemon trees. Join us as we tread in the footsteps of generations past and embrace life on the land.
