Gabriel Farm is a 14 acre Organic farm located in the ideal fruit growing climate of Sebastopol, California. The Farm features 8 varieties of Asian Pears, several varieties of Apples, Fuyu Persimmons, Lavender, Plums and many sorts of berries. Gabriel Farm is the definition of a traditional “family farm”. This is where we live, work and raise our family. As organic farmers, we are devoted to the idea of sharing the process of raising our fruit with the folks who ultimately will eat our fruit. With this in mind, we encourage everyone who eats our fruit to come visit our farm, at least once, to see how we go about raising what we hope is a most delicious piece of fruit.

First Asian Pears of the Season and Boy Are They Good!!!

We are nearing the end of the first week of harvest on our Asian Pears, and I am again reminded of the amazing & remarkable flavor of the Asian Pear.  After the first few bites of a Shinseiki in the morning hours of the first day of picking, I am often left to ponder the reasons why they are not considered a first-tier fruit by most folks.  They are, all at the same time, crisp, juicy, tangy, sweet, crunchy & most-of-all refreshing beyond compare.  And on top of all of that, they will store, relatively unchanged, in the refrigerator for almost 2 full months in most cases - put one in and forget about it, only to return to its amazing flavor and texture.

So at the end of this first week, I am, once again, resolved to spread the word about Asian Pears.  You will find me at the farm, at Farmer's Markets, doing deliveries, and even in my rare spare time, talking about their amazing qualities.  We do really try to raise the best fruit that we can, and in this our 10th season, I am once again rewarded by the tremendous fruit that is the Asian Pear from Gabriel Farm...

Hope to see you all soon...
