\"\"<\/a>CDFA <\/a>is proud to collaborate on this post with USDA\u2019s National Agricultural Statistics Service<\/a>, California Prunes<\/a>, and California Grown<\/a>.<\/p>\n

California leads the nation in prune production, with Golden State growers producing 73,210 tons of prunes valued at $153 million.<\/p>\n

Today, we celebrate California\u2019s prune<\/a> industry and thank everyone who helps bring this nutritious fruit from orchard to table. From the farmers and farmworkers who carefully harvest plums, to those who safely dry, process, package, and transport them.<\/p>\n

Prunes are a delicious and versatile food that can be enjoyed as a snack, blended into smoothies, mixed into trail mix, baked into muffins and breads, or incorporated into savory recipes for a touch of natural sweetness. For more on prunes, check out California Grown\u2019s blog on Prunes are What???<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you to the dedicated people throughout the supply chain who help turn fresh plums into the delicious prunes we enjoy every day.<\/p>\n
