Farming is a way of life and a family tradition for the James E. Cooley family. James, his wife Kathi, four daughters, two son-in-laws, and three grandchildren are proud to carry on the tradition started by James’ father Gene Cooley in 1946.
Today the family farm spreads out over 1,000 acres of peaches, 90 acres of strawberries, 90 acres of cantaloupes, and 34 acres of blackberries, nectarines, plums and Asian pears. But it is not just the land and farming techniques that make Strawberry Hill USA special. Our people make our “Top of the Hill” brand fruit extra sweet.
