The Region that Produces

Our first apple orchard was planted in May, 1992. Fair Hills Farm land is located at the three-way intersection of Hog Canyon, Estrella, and Jardine Roads. The Estrella River basin offers a unique climate with hot sunny days and cool nights that are perfect for growing apples, stone fruit, and grapes.

Certified Organic. Certified Delicious.

Fair Hills Farm is committed to being the preferred supplier of organic produce. We offer 11 varieties of apples, apricots, cherries, peaches, nectarines, pears, pluots, wine grapes, and plums. Fair Hills has achieved the Certified Organic grower status for the past 10 years.

The Rydell Family

David Rydell manages all facets of our business, integrating new growing practices when needed and selling at various farmers markets. Fair Hills Farms is not afraid to innovate as is evident in the bottled wine produced from our Organic Sangiovese & Cabernet wine grapes in 2005!

Nancy Rydell handles the marketing, distribution, and selling at various farmers markets along with specialty stores, hotels and restaurants.

The three Rydell girls have also enjoyed the fruits of our labor and help frequently at various farmers markets around Southern and Central California when they are off on breaks from college.
