Welcome to Peshastin, Washington! As one of our key growing communities, the Wenatchee River Valley is an ideal location for cultivating our Superfresh pears. The dry climate, cool evening temperatures, and ample sunshine all contribute to producing high-quality fruit. The rain shadow created by the Cascade Mountains protects the orchards from damage caused by inclement weather, while abundant water sources and nutrient-rich soil help ensure exceptional pear quality year after year.
In this new video from Superfresh Growers, Ray Schmitten, President of Blue Bird, Inc., shares what makes the Wenatchee River Valley home to world-class fresh pears, highlighting the natural advantages that make this region so special to our orchards.
