Every Spring, the Fresno County Blossom Trail turns into a sight of breathtaking beauty - rows and rows of fruit trees draped in pink and white flowers in full bloom.
FRESNO, Calif. -- If you've never been to California's beautiful Fresno County Blossom Trail, you're missing out.
For a few weeks every Spring, it turns into a sight of breathtaking beauty - rows and rows of peach, apricot, nectarine, almond, plum, and apple trees draped in pink and white flowers in full bloom. More than 20,000 visitors from around the world visit the trail and drive down the 62-mile loop of fruit orchards every year to take in the sight.It's also one of the largest pollination events in the world.Its 80,500 farms and ranches alone are responsible for 11% of total U.S. food production.
So, not long after the Blossom Trail's flowers fade, the fruits that feed America ripen and are harvested and shipped off to different parts of the country. "We get to enjoy the beauty right now, but for the Valley and Valley farmers, it's economic activity. This is this year's crop that's in preparation," says Fresno County Farm Bureau CEO Ryan Jacobsen.
