Ricchiuti family story begins with a voyage from Vincenzo Ricchiuti in 1914 – where he would plant the seeds of a family busi ... ness which would eventually grow for generations. Benefitted by his father’s wisdom, Pat Ricchiuti began his career as a grower, packer, and shipper who aspired to diversify and expand their business. His goal for the newly founded P-R Farms, Inc. in 1956 was to bring forth growth while maintaining quality at every juncture, eventually becoming incorporated in 1963. P-R Farms, Inc. became known worldwide for premium quality peaches, plums, apricots, nectarines, apples, citrus, grapes, almonds, and olives. P-R Farms, Inc. works diligently to exceed industry standards, while constantly reevaluating market demands and trends so to provide customers exceptional quality and service in the global marketplace. P-R Farms, Inc. utilizes four generations of farming expertise to meticulously grow, harvest, pack, and ship the freshest fruit, premium nuts, and organic extra virgin olive oil from their orchards, groves, and vineyards. Today, the Ricchiuti Family Farms operation also includes a retail store – ENZO’S TABLE, an almond hulling and processing plant in Madera, and a newly-completed olive oil milling facility that produces and bottles extra virgin organic olive oil under the label ENZO. Another venture Ricchiuti Family Farms is proud to be a part of is the Network for a Healthy California’s Harvest of the Month program. P-R Farms, Inc. works in conjunction with valley schools and provides education and products to over 65,000 children – demonstrating a strong commitment to their community and state with involvement in education, healthcare, and a multitude of other philanthropic organizations. As they look to the future, Patrick and son, Vincent, remain dedicated to carrying on the family legacy established by Vincenzo and Pat Ricchiuti of being productive agricultural business leaders and devoted community servants. read more
