ABOUT US

Our family-owned agricultural company is located on the west side of Fresno and Merced Counties in the San Joaquin Valley of California since 1985. Our primary business is growing organic crops which include cantaloupes, honeydew melons, mix melons, watermelons, and asparagus. We also grow conventional (non-organic) cantaloupes, almonds, and cherries. Our sister company, J & G Contract Labor, Inc., harvest and pack cantaloupes and asparagus. They provide a farm labor contracting service for associates and neighbors.

Testimonial

A few days ago I bought one of Del Bosque Farms' cantaloupes. It was simply the most delicious cantaloupe I've ever eaten. (I went back and bought more . . .). The flavor inspired me to learn about where the fruit came from Pamela Baxter Garden Writer for The Daily Local News

I bought a sugar baby watermelon there, from your farm. It was organically grown. I grew them in my own garden last year and was excited to find one that was organic. I just cut into it, and it is so glorious!

Had a wonderful visit from the Chicano Latino Youth Leadership Project, Inc. - CLYLP fellows yesterday. Discussion on agriculture, water, farmworkers, policy, and immigration. Toured our organic melon harvest. Talked to one of our employees. Then we went to sister Priscilla’s home for lunch.
Thank you Priscilla and sisters Gloria and Alma for your help. Also thank you to brother-in-law Juan for grilling delicious tri-tip and some of our own organic sweet corn. And, of course, thanks to Maria Gloria Del Bosque for help putting it together.
