Greetings and welcome to the fifty-fourth anniversary year of the Apple Hill Growers. The more than fifty ranches are ready to welcome you to enjoy the many fruit, wine, cider, Christmas trees, baked goods, events and other items that have become synonymous with the high quality food items and family fun that can be found at our Apple Hill member ranches. There is a reason that we get well over one million visitors a year to our ranches. Our customers appreciate the opportunity to get a firsthand view of California agriculture from production through the delicious finished products. Year after year, we get visitors who want their children and grandchildren to experience the same opportunities that their parents and grandparents provided them. With the continually increasing public interest in locally produced food, whether you call it farm-to-table, farm-to-fork, you-pick, buying local, or any other term, it is clear that the appreciation for high quality, locally grown food products is on the increase. Fulfilling this need is what the Apple Hill Growers have been doing for over fifty years. While visiting â&#x20AC;&#x153;the hill,â&#x20AC;? look for the Apple Hill sign of quality. The authentic Apple Hill Growers sign identifies those farms dedicated to sustaining the heritage of the official Apple Hill Growers. Again, welcome to the Apple Hill Growersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ranches, and we hope you have a fun-filled trip. Be sure to also visit the many local businesses, dining, and lodging establishments to round out your Apple Hill Experience. Ron Sbragia, Apple Hill Growers President
