​Diamond Fruit Growers is headquartered in the great Pacific Northwest, in Hood River Valley in Oregon.  Currently recognized for world class recreation including windsurfing, kite boarding, kayaking and alpine sports, Hood River is a frequent destination for outdoor enthusiasts from around the world.  The State of Oregon also has long been known for progressive land use and sustainable practices with Portland, the State’s largest city, recently recognized as the second most bike friendly city in the world.

The beautiful Hood River Valley has a reputation for outstanding quality production for both pears and cherries.  This reputation has been earned through the years by combining three unique qualities.  First, the location of the valley between the cascade volcanoes, Mt Adams to the north and Mt Hood to the south, gives the valley rich soils with perfect texture and nutrients for fruit production.  Second, the location just east of the crest of the Cascade Mountains in Oregon, provides the right number of sunny days and cool nights to maximize the outstanding flavor and quality of the fruit.  Lastly, Diamond has the commitment of family farmers who still walk their land every day providing the best fertilizer of all, an owner’s footsteps.

Diamond Fruit Growers is one of the largest shippers of fresh pears in North America.  Along with the world wide reputation for delicious pears, Diamond Fruit Growers are planting the latest varieties of cherries best suited to the high elevation volcanic soils and local micro climates.  The result is outstanding dark sweet and rainier cherries, eagerly sought by quality buyers around the world.
