Almonds are true all-rounders: their delicate taste, crunchy texture and impressive nutritional profile make them the perfect snack. But how is this little nut with a big character made? Join us in California's Central Valley, one of the world's most fertile growing regions, where our almonds grow from blossom to golden snack. Mild winters, hot summers and rich soils provide ideal conditions in the valley, which is over 600 kilometers long - no wonder that around 80% of the world's almonds are grown here and our Seeberger almonds also begin their journey.
Although the Central Valley is not a desert area, water scarcity plays a role. This is where the meltwater from the Sierra Nevada comes into play, providing the first moisture boost in spring. Modern irrigation techniques such as precision drip irrigation help to use water efficiently and ensure the quality of the almonds - sustainably and in a way that conserves resources.
