Washington Fruit was incorporated in 1916 by Fred B. Plath to grow, pack
and ship apples, pears and peaches from the Yakima Valley. In the 1950s
we started growing cherries for fresh packing. By the early 1970s we
decided to remove our peach acreage to focus our energies on apples,
pears and cherries only.
Today the company is still family owned and operated. We farm
apples, pears, cherries and wine grapes throughout Eastern Washington
while our packing operations have always been based in Yakima.
Additionally, In the 1940s, we started selling for Underwood Fruit,
located in Bingen, WA. Underwood Fruit is based in the heart of the
Mid-Columbia growing region that runs along the Washington and Oregon
borders. Underwood Fruit grows, packs and ships apples, pears and cherries.
Washington Fruit's long and successful history is based on a commitment
to quality, integrity and hard work day in and day out.
