Before you go
A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in California.
- Bring closed-toe shoes, sun protection, water, and containers unless the farm supplies them.
- Call or check the website for today’s picking conditions — mud, rain, and sold-out fields are common.
- Arrive earlier in the day for cooler weather and better selection during peak weekends.
- Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“We have been going to Gil Ranch for their delicious white peaches over the past few years. However, we were sad to discover it was marked as permanently closed on Google map the other day. Thankfully, it seems to have been just a mistake. This place boasts the sweetest and juiciest white peaches, along with a variety of other tasty fruits like nectarines, donut peaches and apricots. The elderly couple who run the farm said they are open every day. Come on down for a fun U-Pick experience!”

“Absolutely loved my visit to Gil Ranch! The hosts are super friendly and accommodating. I picked a variety of sweet fruits: apricots, donut peaches, and nectarines (they have cherries too!). They provide picking buckets, and it's great that they work during the week so it's not too crowded. Walking through the beautiful orchards was such a relaxing time. Highly recommend to anyone looking for fresh, tasty fruit!”

“Smaller farm with nice variety of fruits to pick. Apricots were fantastic and all fruit was well priced at $3.50 a pound. They also sell vegetables that are grown on the farm. I can’t wait until the tomatoes are in season.”

“We have been here a couple times, it is off the main road where the bigger U-pick farms are, but is easy to find and the people are very friendly. All the fruits were $3.50 a pound to pick. Today we came to pick apricots. It was early in the season so most still needed to ripen but the trees were full of fruit and we picked what we needed. This is a nice little farm away from the crowds.”
