Almost 600  acres of Peaches, Apples and Tart Cherries are grown on our farm on the foothills just east of Payson and four other locations in South Utah County.  Good soils, climate, water and air movement make these  unique and irreplaceable areas in South Utah County ideal for growing fruit.


The Allred Family is grateful to be farming and growing fruit. 


Our Dad and Mom have always told us (their children and grandchildren) that we have a stewardship over the land and we are to make it beautiful and productive. 


We are blessed to be living their dream.

Our Legacy

It must be in the genes, this "love of growing things."  Or is it passed from one generation to another because of a loving example seen by those who came later?  Whatever the reason, there has been and continues to be a love of the soil, of things that grow in it and are harvested from it in the family of Rey and Mary Carol Allred.

Rey grew up on the farm his father and grandfather established in 1926 on University Avenue in Provo.  The original barn built in 1893 still exists today as a retail outlet for their peaches, nectarines, apples, apple juice 

and dried cherries.  


In 1957 Rey, Mary Carol and Rey's father, Bliss, purchased a farm in Payson and began to plant peaches, apples, sweet and tart cherries.  That year Rey graduated from BYU with a degree in horticulture and spent his time fulfilling his dream of growing the best fruit possible.

If Rey had time and the inclination to have had a hobby, it would have been farming and spending time with people in the fruit industry.  He was always looking for better ways to do things:  new varieties to plant, new rootstocks for plantings, new machinery to plant, spray, transport, prune and harvest the fruit, new spacings for trees, new trellis systems to train the trees, new irrigations systems and anything else that he could think of.  In short, he had never stopped learning how to do his job better.  He never stopped teaching those around him what he had learned, and his excitement and enthusiasm continue to inspire those who knew and loved him.


Rey and his wife, Mary Carol have passed on this "love of growing things" to their children and grandchildren and they are finding that same enjoyment in working with the Creator 

to beautify and make productive 

this earth we live on.
