HISTORY
1954
Jim began farming his father, Edgar's, citrus and stonefruit after graduating highschool in 1954. He also grew cotton on his father in laws property. Eventually he bought some of his father’s properties and his father in laws property. He became a farm labor contractor picking oranges and olives. He also was a truck driver hauling the fruit his crews picked.
1979
Greg Haury helped with some of the farming chores after school and on weekends. After graduating high school, Greg drove truck hauling fruit in from the fields to packinghouses. Greg also helped with some of the farming (spraying trees, running wind machines, forklifting, and various tractor work).
1989
Trucking became a large part of the family business, so Greg bought his own truck. Jim and Greg hauled oranges from the field to Ivanhoe Citrus (Sunkist) for several years, totaling over half a million bins.
1993
Eventually Greg and Jim bought properties in partnership and planted pummelos in 1993
2000
In 2000, Jim and Greg built a small packing house in partnership to pack their own pummelos. Greg managed the packing house and Jim managed the farming.
2008
Greg built a new packing house and cold storage from the ground up. This allowed him to pack a large volume of pummelos more efficiently and store them for a long time in a cooler.
2009
Greg convinced Jim to allow him to convert one of the orange fields they owned together to Organic.
2012
Our first organic field was Certified Oganic.
2020
Blake left his job to come work on the family farm.
2022
We made our own Haury Farms brand, with the packaging inspired by Greg's first truck from 1989.
2023
We redesigned our website and created social media pages to create a better connection to our customers and show them how we grow their food.
2024
All of our Pummelos are Certified Organic. Every acre we grow is now Organic.
