Kitchel Family Organics holds not only the highest standards for its products but an immense amount of love, and commitment, to Tehama County’s agricul- tural industry. When you first lay eyes on the farm you see a large nectarine tree situated right next to the front gate, as if to welcome you into the Gar- den of Eden. With more than 250 fruit and nut trees and a large vegetable garden coloring the backdrop of the home it seems as if 10 acres were somehow transformed into 100. The list of heirloom vari- eties looks like the phone- book, but here are some customer favorites: walnuts, peaches, nectarines, pluots, apricots, figs, pomegranates and strawberries — it is truly a chef’s playground. The setting is as warm and inviting as the owners Lana and John Kitchel, who keep the farm in immacu- late condition with their two sons Nik and Luke. John has a degree in horticul- ture from Califor- nia State Univer- stiy, Chico and balances the fami- ly farm with his landscaping busi- ness, Lassen Landscapes. Lana says John is an artist, with the soil as his canvas and the crops as his paints — dots of strawberries here, sweeps of eggplants there, creating a work of art in the field.
