Churchill Orchard
in the Ojai Valley


Our orchard is in the beautiful East End of the Ojai Valley in Southern California.

We grow about 12 acres of tangerines - Pixie tangerine, Page tangor, Seedless Kishu mandarin, Owari Satsuma mandarin, and a few other varieties that we're trying out - plus 5 acres of avocados - Hass, Fuerte, Mexicola Grande and Bacon varieties.

Everything we grow is CCOF-certified Organic.

----- Jim Churchill and Lisa Brenneis, Proprietors

Interesting weather in 2014 produced a small citrus crop. We have run out of organic Ojai Pixies and Kishu Mandarins for this year. We're hoping for an warmer winter with early rain.

Our 2015 season will begin in February (knock wood) with the incomparable Kishu Mandarin and then the Pixies will return in April (knock wood). Please sign up for our email list if you want us to alert you when the 2015 fruit is ready to ship. Thanks everybody!

California folks please note: We hope to return to the Berkeley and Ojai farmers markets starting in January 2015. We're offering certified organic Kishus, avocados, Page mandarins and Ojai Pixies.
HERE IS OUR FARMERS MARKET SCHEDULE:

North Berkeley Farmers Market Thursdays from 3-7 PM
Downtown Berkeley Market Saturdays from 10AM-3PM
Ojai Farmers Market Sundays from 9AM- 1PM

We've learned from experience that taking mail orders too far in advance can be expensive for us. Sometimes Nature has other plans for our crop. So we wait until we have a reasonable chance of delivering. We always email our list before opening up for orders on an item.

Sign up below to be notified when our delicious certified organic Kishu mandarins and Ojai Pixies are ready to ship.
