DINUBA, CA - Berry Fresh is using its platform to amplify the voice of two California blueberry farmers in its latest grower spotlight. The company sat down with brothers Jaspal and Jaspreet Sangha of partner grower Sangha Farms to talk about how their family became blueberry growers and their vision for the future.

A little over 30 miles south of Fresno, Sangha Farms is in the small town of Dinuba, California. With 45 acres of blueberries, the two brothers are kept busy tending their farm from dawn until dusk.

“We live in Fresno, so it’s about a 30-40 minute drive to the farm. Everyday we are here at 7 a.m. and stay in the fields until the sun goes down,” Jaspreet Sangha said in a press release provided by Berry Fresh.

Jagjit Sangha, the brothers' father, is still active on the Sangha family farm, helping the two tend their fields. With pristine fields and fantastic quality, Sangha Farms is lauded as a first-class blueberry grower amongst customers and fellow growers alike.

“Our great-grandparents, grandparents, and our parents were all farmers in India and Pakistan. They grew mostly seasonal crops, and my dad is a master in growing potato seeds,” said Jaspal Sangha. “It just comes down to the great varieties we grow [Suziblue, Legacy, and Meadowlark] and our time in the field. Growing well is all about timing, knowing exactly when to give the plants what they need, and you can only know that when you’re in the field every day.”

With the California season starting, Jaspal and Jaspreet Sangha are excited for this season and the future. In the short-term, their focus is growing production through newer varieties which will pave the way for their long-term goal of having their children take over the business someday.

“We want each kid to get involved, maybe have a parcel each to see who can be the best grower,” Jaspal Sangha joked.
