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!

You'll have to wait a year for that fresh taste again.....the last and final cot has been cut and set out in the sun to dry. Our next two weeks will be spent scraping fruit off the trays.
Not an easy job and not for weaklings.....there are nearly 7000 trays apricots to scrape....and those slabs the hardest to get off the tray. Takes 10-14 men, two forklifts, and 2,000 boxes.
Hang in there folks....we're processing cots.
