Through innovation and integrity, CMC has evolved from a modest family farm into a multi-faceted agricultural enterprise, ensuring the sustainability and prosperity of the San Joaquin Valley. CMC is more than a citrus farm—it's a network of hardworking individuals and families, all dedicated to producing the highest quality fruit while supporting our local communities. We are currently farming more than 6,000 Acres collectively between Bakersfield and Fresno.
“Relationships are paramount to us. Our primary goal and objective is to care and provide for our people - Matthew Fisher
