From orchards throughout California, including 600 acres of company-owned trees in Clovis, peaches are carefully hand-picked at harvest and transferred to the processing facility. After washing, sizing, pitting, peeling and frequent inspections, the golden peach halves move on conveyor belts by professional graders who separate the fruit into Wawona’s four product lines:

    • The perfect peaches are selected as Signature Sliced Peaches for desserts
    • A large number of peaches head to the blast freezer to be individually quick frozen (IQF) for peach products, blends, yogurts, etc.
    • Softer peaches are sliced and designated for ice cream manufacturers
    • The overripe fruit is sent to the purée line where Vitamin C and sugar are added

The Wawona Way

As a family-owned company, Wawona operates with the highest integrity, building a top reputation as a quality grower and processor. It all starts with harvesting premium fruit, grown in ideal growing conditions under sunny California skies. The cool nights help to seal in the fruit’s acids and flavors, which then ripen during the hot long summer days. After harvest, Wawona’s state-of-the-art processing methods and experienced staff ensure they capture the natural essence of the fruit under strict quality control and food safety procedures. In addition, all three processing facilities have been upgraded with more efficient, cost-saving technologies – from the initial sorting to the latest innovative packaging.
