Description

Since 1951, our mission has been to provide orchardists throughout the western states with top quality fruit and nut trees and the best service in the industry. By combining the tried & true methods of the past with today’s technological advancements in precision agriculture, we’ve been perfecting our growing methods, our rootstock and budwood, and our finished tree quality for over 67 years.

Sierra Gold Nurseries has its own on-site fruit and nut rootstock micropropagation facility called Feather River Plants. Feather River Plants utilizes modern plant tissue culture techniques to clone today's top selections of Apple, Cherry, Pear, Peach, Almond, Walnut and Pistachio Rootstocks.

The Ellepot™ is a plantable container made by a very thin but strong membrane that holds the potting soil together for several months but then biodegrades in the soil after planting. This system is being used more and more by Nut and Fruit Growers because of its healthier and faster root development. In this video, Cliff Beumel, will discuss the benefits of planting an Ellepot™ and will dig up a recently planted Almond Tree to examine root growth.

Check out the first-of-its-kind Ellepot multi-flex line machine for the production of JETs. The JET was developed and commercialized as the world's largest Ellepot container for the perfect growing system - not just for rootstock - but large enough for budded almond and fruit trees!

Bigger is not always better! Check out our 1/4 June Budded Walnuts that were planted in a trial block here at Sierra Gold Nurseries. This video shows you a time-lapse from when the tree was planted to one year of growth.
