Located in the fertile heartland of Oakdale California, Burchell Nursery has been a trusted name in the industry for decades. We are the go-to destination for growers seeking high-quality fruit and nut trees. Our commitment to excellence, unparalleled expertise, and a vast selection of meticulously grown varieties make us the preferred choice for farmers nationwide. Please explore our website and discover the roots of your success in the world of fruitful possibilities.

We’re here to support you and your orchard’s future success, breeding the highest quality trees and providing the varieties you desire.

At Burchell Nursery, we understand the challenges that commercial growers face. Our field reps work closely with you to identify and solve problems. They bring these challenges back to our in-house breeding program, making us the only independent nursery to offer this service. We believe this is the most effective way to develop the right varieties for your evolving needs.

Drought? Pests? Regulations? We’re on it.

With our in-house breeding program, coupled with the first-hand knowledge of our field reps, we can provide varieties and rootstocks to fit your orchard needs. We have focused our breeding to give you high-quality varieties with the perfect mix of:

  • Crop yield, quality, and productivity

  • Water efficiency and salt tolerance

  • Pest and disease resistance

  • Tree efficiency

  • Harvest timing options

We recognize your economic and environmental realities, and we’re doing everything we can to help you overcome them. We have collaborative relationships with nurseries and researchers worldwide to help enhance our capabilities. To help ensure you’re able to manage increasing restrictions on pesticide use and air quality — plus the continuing loss of bee colonies — we developed the patented Shasta® almond. It’s a highly productive variety.

Burchell Nursery’s success story is one of genetics.
Certainly, the first 80 years have been about breeding the highest quality fruit and nut trees.
