Live Oak Farms
Since 1929, the Giampaoli Family has farmed the rich soil of the San Joaquin Valley. What began as a modest tomato growing and packing operation under a Live Oak tree in Merced County, California is today a diversified farming operation that’s committed to excellence in all we do. Now a fourth generation family farm, Live Oak Farms grows fresh tomatoes, peppers, almonds, and a host of other crops in California’s San Joaquin Valley, Riverside and Santa Clara Counties.
Sustainability
Food Safety
“Years ago we worked with other farmers, customers, and trade associations to develop the first ever mandatory food safety program for fresh tomatoes. We were leaders then, and are still today. But, I’m also a mom and know that it’s confusing for parents as to what’s safe. I’m not selling any vegetable that I don’t feed to my own children.”
