Dried Blenheim Apricots From Our Orchard to Your Home
Welcome to B&R Farms, where our family has been growing Blenheim apricots for generations in the sunny heart of California. What started as a small family orchard has grown into a tradition of sharing the rich, vibrant flavor of the rare Blenheim with families across the country.
From the moment each apricot ripens on the tree to when it’s hand-dried and packed, every step happens right here on our farm. The result is a collection of sweet and savory favorites — from classic dried apricots to spreads, toppings, and treats — all made with the same care and craftsmanship our family is known for.
Enjoy a true taste of California sunshine, brought straight from our orchard to your home.
Share the taste of California sunshine with our Blenheim Apricot Gift Packages. Each box is filled with our family’s sweet and savory favorites — from dried apricots to spreads and treats — all crafted and packed with care on our Hollister farm. A perfect gift for any occasion.
Dried Blenheim apricots are naturally rich in fiber (digestive support), potassium (heart/healthy blood pressure), and antioxidants like beta-carotene (eye/skin health). They’re a convenient, real-fruit energy snack and a versatile ingredient for sweet or savory dishes.
A sensible serving is about ¼ cup (roughly 4–6 halves). That keeps calories and natural sugars in check while delivering fiber and nutrients. If you’re managing blood sugar or on a specific diet, ask your healthcare provider what serving works for you.
There isn’t one “healthiest”—it depends on your goals. Look for no added sugar and minimal ingredients. Apricots stand out for fiber + potassium; prunes for digestion, figs for calcium, and dates for quick energy. Our Blenheim apricots are prized for big flavor with simple, farm-first ingredients.
