Medjool dates are believed to be the oldest cultivated fruit in the world! Some historians estimate that humans have been growing and harvesting them for at least 6,000 years. Archaeological evidence indicates that the Sumerians were cultivating dates in the "cradle of civilization" (the region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in the Middle East) before 3,000 B.C. We are proud to carry on this rich and extensive tradition.
