- California Orchard Co. (CAOX) engages in the cultivation and sale of fruits and vegetables, primarily wine grapes from vineyards in Monterey County, California. The company, founded in 1917 alongside Salinas Land Company by Abe Hobson, C.C. Teague, and John Lagomarsino, is headquartered at Highway 101 Teague Avenue in King City, California, and maintains approximately 1,900 to 1,958 acres of developed vineyard land in the Salinas River Valley. It grows grapes on owned acreage for direct sales to major wineries including Constellation Brands and Jackson Family Wines, while leasing substantial portions of its land, including around 1,662 acres previously held by Scheid Vineyards, to TIAA (via Nuveen’s farmland platform) for steady gross profits of $1.5 million to $2 million annually from leasing activities; additional revenue derives from ancillary sources such as a Verizon cell tower and staff housing rentals. The company transitioned its operations exclusively to vineyards around 2000, focusing on premium Monterey County terroir suited for wine production, and markets produce to food retailers, wholesalers, and vintners throughout California and the United States within the agricultural products and services industry. In recent years, Salinas Land Company, which has held a controlling stake since 2003, continues oversight amid stable leasing yields contrasting volatile grape sales; no major acquisitions, funding rounds, or strategic shifts have been reported in 2024 or 2025, with operations emphasizing long-term land stewardship and vineyard management.
