Workshops – Books – Tours – Trees – Plants

Thanks to Peaceful Valley Farm and Garden Supply (originally started by our founder Amigo Bob Cantisano), a collection of some of our favorite species and varieties will be available for pre-sale through their website beginning the 2024/25 Bareroot Season 

November 11, 2024

The SOLD OUT Varieties listed below are for informational purposes only, ones we have sold over the years, and are the result of our passionate searches throughout Northern California, the Sierra Nevada and Western States to re-discover the historic, agricultural, living library still in existence. These trees and plants, left over from the 1800’s and early 1900’s Gold Rush era, were discovered on historic mining camps, ranches and homesteads and have become climate resilient with no human attention for the last 100 plus years. They give the best fruit and nuts in conditions that most fruit and nut trees cannot endure with large annual temperature variations.

These  grandmother trees have learned to thrive under the most harsh conditions, and with uncertain weather patterns, we want to make them available to growers, gardeners and communities throughout the West Coast.

We have personally found these trees and have taken cuttings directly from the 100+ year old grandmother trees that still cling to life in ghostly, historic orchards. The Felix Gillet Institute trees are very rare, exclusive plants – some may have only just been rediscovered.

95% of plants available during the 1800s are no longer available today.  We are saving what is left before they die. 

 You can become a Mother Orchard Supporter and help us in our efforts to discover more rare, historical trees and care for our collection of over 250 trees.

Ten of these varieties will be available through Peaceful Valley Farm and Garden Supply this year in our 2024/25 Collection. 

Thank you for all your Support!

Product Details

A famous heirloom white peach has firm, juicy, melting, exquisite flavor and sweetness with a great acid/ sweet balance. Good backyard tree. The fruit are large and produce abundantly. Handle carefully during harvest since the fruit bruises easily. A unique heirloom fit for the peach lover with discerning tastes. It was a found seedling in California in the 1950's and it didn't take long for it to catch on. Our trees are large 2 year trees.

Our fruit explorer friend Mark Fowler in Newcastle, Stewarts an old orchard and nursery left over from early 1900's. Some of the trees he takes care of are original 100 year trees but he has also top grafted hundreds of varieties of heirloom fruit on his trees. Thanks Mark, You are the Best!
