“This year, after our harvest, we're actually transitioning many of our mini Medjool lines to organic,” Liam shared in the video. “This year, we'll be focusing on organic coconut—available now—and also our partnerships with the California Walnut Commission.”

As Liam shares, the company’s alliance with the California Walnut Commission has carved out opportunities for dual-category growth.

“It's been highly successful doing new co-branded opportunities pushing both walnuts and dates on your charcuterie boards. One thing about our mini Medjools is they're actually smaller than most in the industry and very good to hand a child for a snack or just an easy pop-in-your-mouth treat,” Liam adds.
