About Wilbur Packing

The Wilbur family’s roots in California agriculture date back to 1869. Since their arrival in the Sacramento Valley, the members of the Wilbur family have been pioneers in the farming industry. They were one of the first to plant orchards in the fertile soil of the Yuba and Feather River bottoms– today considered the preeminent prune and walnut producing area of the world. Five generations later, the Wilbur Ranch continues to be a leader in California agriculture with over 3,000 acres of prunes and walnuts. The cornerstone of the Wilbur family’s farming philosophy is good stewardship of the land for future generations.
