About ApricotKing
Since 1946, the Gonzales family has grown the rare and fabulous California Blenheim apricots. Grown on our Hollister ranch, we continue to be the farmer, pruner, dryer, packer, and seller of the vanishing Blenheim apricot. We produce the best tasting apricots in the world all "Home Grown in the Flavor Zone"!
In addition to our incredible dried apricots, be sure to discover our variety of nuts (walnuts, pistachios, almonds) and other dried fruits (peaches, pears, prunes, and more). For those who believe less is more, we have dark and delicious unsulfured dried apricots. And don't forget our sweet and tart selection of apricot jams and syrups as well as our decadent chocolate covered fruits and nuts. Simply delicious! Everything here on the ranch is organically grown.
Enjoy!

Apricotking uses a machine to cut apricots. It's an oldie 75+years old......but a goodie. Picture a green locomotive sized machine that was invented to cut peaches.
Only ten exist in the state. The apricots go into a bath, travel up the rollers,
at the top automatic knives slice them in half, spit out the pit,
and send them traveling down a tray.
Need 50 people tomorrow at 7 a.m. to do the rest
of the sorting. Come on people.........help us cut cots!
