Beginning in the 1940’s Norman Bradford dedicated much of his working life to the development of new fruit and nut varieties on the same ranch in Le Grand, California. He spent the first 4 decades with the renowned Fred Anderson, and in 1981 Fred sold the breeding business to Norman and his son, Glen.
