REEDLEY, CA - Sometimes in life, you need something new to freshen up your perspective, whether that be a new wardrobe, trying new things, or changing up your branding—or at least, that’s the case for Family Tree Farms. Just like Family Tree Farms’ unique fruit, its new brand is anything but ordinary. The grower recently unveiled a brand refresh, encapsulating the heart and soul of the company.

“Flavor is at the forefront of what we do. This brand refresh is an opportunity to tell our story and our family commitment to providing the most flavorful fruit in the world,” said Co-Owner David Jackson. “By having premium products in eye-catching packaging and graphics, we are able to communicate flavor in a bold way.”

Family Tree Farms’ modernized brand preserves the heart and soul of its deep family roots while introducing a contemporary, consumer-focused story of some of the world’s most flavorful fruit.

This fresh positioning also brings increased energy to the brand and creates an impactful presence that spotlights its exclusive blueberry and stonefruit varieties. While the original branding successfully communicated Family Tree Farms’ authenticity and freshness, this was an opportunity to draw attention to its unique flavor profiles and high-quality products.

“Our desire is that consumers would recognize the brand of Family Tree Farms at shelf and that it would deliver on quality and flavor every time,” said Co-Owner Andy Muxlow. “We love to farm and bring unique taste experiences in fruit all across the produce aisle from berries to tree-fruit, and we are thrilled to launch our new brand refresh.”

To help position the brand to deliver on its promise as the leader for unmatched flavor and quality, Family Tree Farms engaged strategic design agency Freshmade to launch its new brand identity, packaging, and website.

“In the aisle, Family Tree Farms’ new packaging invites consumers to experience the sensational flavor of its signature varieties. We have developed a brand architecture that provides flexibility to showcase specialty products while building equity in the brand,” said David Edmundson, Founding Partner and Creative Director at Freshmade.

The new custom wordmark is distinctive and impactful, elevating quality perceptions and building equity across the entire portfolio. According to the release, the strategic color-coded system creates better visibility and consistency so consumers can easily find Family Tree Farms in the aisle.

In addition, the new website serves as a resource for consumers to learn more about Family Tree Farms’ unique varieties and generates excitement around incredibly distinct flavor profiles.

“Consumers buy with their eyes. Designing packaging that created a disruption was imperative to this refresh,” said Nicole Sandoval, Marketing Manager. “Commoditizing produce doesn’t lead the consumer to make an emotional connection with a brand; a unique personality does. We feel the new brand aesthetic best reflects who we are today and the level of quality our consumers have come to expect.”
