Rancho de Santa Fe is a sixteenth-generation farm; the Velardes have been growing fruit at Velarde Orchards for over four hundred years, since 1598. They sell their produce and dozens of value-added products at the Fruit Basket. In this episode of 5-Minute Fridays, Eddie Velarde and his son Caleb share their family’s history and reflect on what farming will look like for the next generation.
