What makes the Grav such a star?

(Available in 1 gallon,
48oz and 32oz glass containers)

Horticulturists say its triple chromosome has the strongest will to survive of any apple. Our Gravs, many 100 years old with 30 foot canopies, are grown in Sonoma County's hot dry climate. We purposely don't irrigate. Forcing the trees to seek moisture builds character, crunch and intensifies aroma and flavor.

Created from Sebastopol's own gravenstein apples, this unfiltered organic pasteurized apple juice is a favorite of many of our customers. Squeezed from fresh, whole, ripe organic gravensteins. Especially delightful for those of you who prefer a less 'sweet' apple juice, this terrific tasting juice has a natural tart edge to it.

Our Blend is out of this world!

(Available in 1 gallon, half gallon,
48oz and 32oz glass containers)

Sonoma County is famous for having the perfect growing climate for both grapes and apples. Our growing season runs April through November, allowing for a nice, long time for the growing and ripening of our apples. The season includes warm days and cool nights, with very little rainfall. Our climate combined with acidic soil results in a flavor intensity and aromatic oil essence that dramatically increases the quality of the apples. We have one of the few locations on earth that hosts such superior growing conditions.

You know it is Delicious!

(Available in 48oz glass containers)

Red and Golden Delicious apples dance together to make this uniquely luscious juice. This one’s of America’s favorite snacking apple. The heart-shaped fruit is bright red and sometimes striped with gold. These apples are crunchy with a mildly sweet flavor. Since 1979, customers have told us our products taste great. They call and gush. They write fan letters. We have won several taste tests over larger national competitors. Customers trust us to grow, harvest and process in strict accordance with State/Federal organic regulations. People relate to us as "the apple guys" - authentic farmers they can trust to keep chemicals off their plate.

KSA, the largest Orthodox certification agency in the U.S.

Our Products are Kosher!

All of Solana Gold Organics products bear the stamp of KSA (Kosher Supervision of America). This certification states that our products are under strict rabbinical supervision and are certified Kosher and Pareve and bear the KSA symbol of certification.

Kosher, the Hebrew word for "proper", encompasses 3000-year-old biblical laws concerning food consumption. A study, in 2002, showed that $150 billion of kosher-certified products are consumed annually.

Kosher products are consumed by Jews, Muslims, Seventh-Day Adventists, vegetarians, vegans, lactose-intolerant individuals, and many others who purchase kosher products for religious or philosophical reasons. Because concerns about the integrity of our food supply are increasing, we have elected to have our products kosher certified to let consumers know that our product(s) are of the highest integrity and purity. Of course, in the process of having our products certified kosher, we have been forced to reevaluate every process, procedure, system and control we use in all aspects of our business.

Kosher certification requires strict adherence to a series of guidelines governing the usage, production, packaging, and labeling of food products. The main points include: (1) Meat and dairy products must never be used together; (2) no shellfish, pork, or insects may be consumed in any form, including ingredients derived from these sources; and (3) all meet must be slaughtered according to strict guidelines.

A kosher product may be designated either pareve (neutral), dairy, meat, or for Passover. Pareve means the product contains no dairy-or meat-derived ingredients. Dairy means the product contains dairy ingredients, or was processed on dairy manufacturing equipment. Meat means the product contains meat or poultry ingredients, or was manufactured on equipment used for meat processing. Finally, Passover means the product ingredients are safe for use during the Passover holiday.

Where and how our apples are grown

Why these products generate consumer loyalty and high repeat sales

Why these fruits taste great

Why Organic?

* * * * *

There are few spots on Earth with our ideal growing conditions:

Sonoma County's climate is famous for - not just growing grapes - but apples too. We have an extremely long and slow growing season (April-November) of warm days, cool nights, very little rainfall in summer and acidic soil. These conditions combine to dramatically increase flavor, a satisfying grainy crunchiness, and aromatic oil essences.

Ever had fruits that looked great but tasted blah?

That's because many commercial farms rush fruits to market before they are ready. Their marketers select 'shipper' apples for skin color uniformity, to stir impulse buys. Our apple trees signal us when the time is ripe by dropping at peak flavor, texture and aroma.

Why bother "Going Organic?"

Organic is now a multi-billion dollar market. Health conscious consumers say, "I like the 'organic alternative' from my neighborhood store." General consumers tend to eventually follow the true organic types - from the civil rights causes and anti-war sentiments - to the current cause of food safety and personal health responsibility.

Whether you are a consumer or a reseller, 'bother going organic', because it's not secret that chemical farm sprays have been implicated in cancer, birth defects, and nervous system disorders. EPA admits they " ...registered many pesticides BEFORE their harm was proven...and chemical phase-outs can take as long as four years." That is why you are increasingly hearing others say...

"No thanks. Make mine organic!"
