The arid climate and fertile soil of California's San Joaquin Valley provide perfect conditions for growing almonds and pistachios. Our goal is to improve on nature where we can and nurture our more than 70,000 acres with the best of care.
Stewardship of the environment has always been a core value of Paramount Farms. We are proud to be industry leaders in Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) and believe we have the finest and most innovative water management program in California. By carefully selecting our orchard locations and combining agricultural science with ecological responsibility, we now have the most consistently productive and sustainable large-scale orchards in the industry.
