This orchard is just now coming into its prime producing years and the yields have been rapidly increasing. The current owner spared no expenses in the development of this orchard and irrigation system and is poised to be an excellent producing orchard for many years to come. In addition, this ranch provides one with numerous recreational opportunities. The 15-acre lake situated in the middle of the orchard is truly an oasis of enjoyment and beauty.
