Marthedal Family

Jon takes pride in being a blueberry grower in California, where he believes is the one of the best places for growing blueberries.

Steed Family

When Bill Steed began farming 17 years ago, he underwent a life change from the corporate world to the farming world. Located in Pauma Valley, California, Fairfield Farms grows 400 acres of avocados, citrus, and blueberries. When Bill Steed first began farming, it was through the help and advice from other California blueberry growers such as the Mungers that he was able to grow his operation. This sense of community was like nothing he had experienced in the corporate world. Today Bill and his son Spencer work year-round to provide consumers high quality California blueberries. ​

Munger Family

When David and Kable Munger's father purchased his first farm in 1971, he may not have known that he would start a legacy that has now lasted three generations. David and Kable's passion for farming began when they were working as farm laborers after coming to the United States in 1966. This passion has now extended to Kable Munger's children who are third generation farmers. Due to the great health benefits blueberries provide, the Munger family felt blueberries were the perfect crop to grow. With every season that passes, the Munger's are constantly adapting their growing practices to provide a super quality blueberry while also protecting the land and environment. Whenever there is a California choice, be sure to buy California grown blueberries first!

Critchley Family

When Scott and Mandy Critchley planted their first block of blueberries in 2008, they were looking for something different from what they had traditionally grown. Between the Central Valley's mild summers and adequate chill hours, blueberries became the perfect addition to Critchley Family Farms. For Scott and Mandy, growing blueberries has never been a job but instead a passion. Through managing both the ranches and packing facility, the Critchley's work tirelessly to provide consumers with fresh, high quality California blueberries. ​
