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!
The Red Bud Stage
The Red Bud Stage
Posted by Hoping for strong surviving buds, Patti on Mar 4th 2019
The apricot trees are turning red......seriously....they're all red.
The bark, the trunks, the limbs are a deep dark red. It's time for the buds
to shoot out of their little jackets. Our home ranch orchard looks red with
little drop-sized buds just inching to push out and be a blossom.
So this would be the time when we DON'T want rain & we don't want
freezing cold nights. (Anything above 34 degrees is fine)
More rain on the horizon......outlook does not look promising
