This beautiful label from Andy's Orchard is smaller than the normal crate label measuring 8” Wide x 2.75” High. It is from Morgan Hills, California, is circa 1960s, and shows the orchard with images of peaches and cherries on either side.
The story starts with Joseph Mariani who emigrated from Europe and settled in the Santa Clara Valley in the early 1930’s. Joseph, a long time vineyardist, was keenly aware of the importance of the site to growing quality fruit, and in 1957 found and purchased their orchard location, a sunny south-facing slope with well drained alluvial soil, free of spring frosts, with ample water for irrigation. Here, in this warm coastal valley, tempered by the cooling influence of the Pacific, he and his family set out to grow some of the finest fruit in a region already known for the quality of its agricultural products.
