Fallbrook, CA - In June of 2007, Pedro Gallardo acquired 20 acres of lush farmland in Fallbrook of San Diego County and fulfilled a dream to establish his own organic ranch. In Southern California, Pedro’s farm resides in a hot and humid valley known as, 'The Avocado Capital of the World' which bathes in the moisture of the Pacific Ocean. This provides the perfect subtropical weather conditions and temperament for the growth of high-quality exotic crops and premium-grade citrus all year round. In order to ensure his customers receive the freshest and highest quality produce, Pedro’s Organic Ranch proudly maintains a pesticide free and chemical free environment.

A purveyor of alluring tropical produce, Pedro grows avocados, passion fruit, dragon fruit, guavas, mulberries, and much more. This year, our staff was honored with an opportunity to visit Pedro’s Organic Ranch and see his amazing work, firsthand. Throughout our immersive tour, Pedro Gallardo displayed his farm’s wide variety of organic fruit and the comprehensive manner in which he tends to their needs. He even gave us a chance to try the illusive ice cream bean fruit, right off of the branch! We admire Pedro’s passion for procuring an amazing farm-to-table experience and hope you adore our local ‘Avocado Artisan’.View other producers
