Скачать или смотреть Gizdich Ranch, Watsonville | A Journey to California Farmland

In this video, I am going to show you a popular California Ranch called the 'Gizdich Ranch'. I am going to explore the beautiful California farmland. The Gizdich Ranch is in the core of Watsonville's apple country on picturesque Peckham Road. This 4th generation, family owned and operated, agricultural business is testimony that what made America great is still viable. People who visit this ranch seem to realize how rare a successful business such as this are these days. The Ranch was originally purchased by Vincent John Gizdich, a Croatian Immigrant, in 1937. Back then it simply consisted of 5 acres in apples, 5 acres open ground for chickens, pigs and tomatoes, the home, and packing shed. In 1950, Mr. Gizdich and son Vincent Jr. leased extra acreage to experiment with the new Olallieberry, which is a cross between a logan and a black young berry from Corvallis, Oregon.

Vince Jr. took over full management of the farm after his father's retirement in 1959. The ranch was now 30 acres of apples and berries. Another 20 acres were purchased and devoted to Olallie berries. In order to ensure marketing of their berries, a PIK-YOR-SELF operation was established in 1965 and apples were sold for the first time on the ranch. Today people come from all parts of California with their families and friends to pick their own berries and apples for baking, jams and eating, knowing that it doesn't get any fresher than this. The farm also has an antique shop. I will be exploring the Pie and Deli Shop, Red Barn Shop, Nita's Antiques and Gift Shop, The Farm and eating some delicious pies. I will also recommend few spots in Watsonville to enjoy amazing food after visiting the ranch. Explore this famous ranch in Watsonville, California with me!
