John Lagier is a 4th generation farmer in San Joaquin County, California. His great grand father dry farmed wheat and barley and raised mules, his grandfather continued on the same land with a cattle ranch which his father diversified into almond orchards, vineyards and row crops. Each generation added more diversity to the farm. John began farming grapes and almonds in 1979. He initiated his own generational footprint on the land in 1992 when he started to transition the farm to organic and we became Lagier Ranches, Inc.. By 1996 we were 100% organic. We grow cherries, blackberries, boysenberries, citrus, almonds, Bronx table grapes, paw paws, and more; all of which are sold fresh on our farm, to local produce markets, stores, restaurants and farmers markets.
