Description:
Pinnacle Farms is a local, naturally grown farm comprised of two locations. In central Phoenix, where the citrus orchard is, we offer Arizona Sweets and other citrus and stone fruits during the spring and summer season.
The new bigger farm is in Avondale in the west valley. The farms are not open to the public, but under certain conditions an appointment could be made for a private tour. (Or WEEDING!) -
