 So what exactly is “organic”?

“Organic” means we grow our dates naturally. We do not use any chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Instead, we rely on a combination of ancient wisdom and modern technology to ensure outstanding crop quality.

Our methods include thinning our ranches regularly. This practice gives our organic dates more space to grow, ensuring a larger, sweeter, fleshier fruit without the use of chemical fertilizers. Thinning also allows us to cut back on water usage.

THE BENEFITS OF ORGANIC DATES

So, why choose organic dates? There are countless reasons, but a few of our favorites include:

 Choosing organic dates means you keep harmful pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals out of your body.

  • Organic farming keeps dangerous substances out of the soil, reducing pollution and protecting the environment.
  • Organic dates tend to be fresher than conventionally grown dates.
  • Organic dates are GMO-free. This means their DNA has not been altered. We grow real food the way it was meant to be.

 Our organic dates offer these advantages in addition to the natural health benefits of the fruit.

Date sugars create a sweetness that can easily replace table sugar. Date paste and date syrup make ideal replacements for refined sugar in various food formulations, such as soft drinks, energy bars, baked goods, and confections. 

In fact, date products in foods like bread and yogurt improve the taste and texture.

HOW ORGANIC DATES GROW

Date palms take 7 to 10 years to produce viable yields for commercial harvest. Mature date palms can produce 150 to 300 pounds of dates each season.
Dates grow in strands. To get the best fruit, we thin out more than half of the young fruit from each strand so the remaining dates can grow large.

When these dates are nearly ripe, we cover the fruit bunches with bags to protect them from weather, birds and insects. When it’s time to harvest the fruits, we untie the bags and collect the strands. Finally, the fruits are washed, separated and packaged or processed.

You can find the sweetest, freshest dates at date farms in California and you’ll find the best of the best right here at Woodspur Farms in the Coachella Valley.
