Closer Than You Think
Temecula sits between San Diego and the Inland Empire — typical UPS Ground delivery from our farm in 1-2 days.
We grow in the Coachella Valley, which produces over 95% of all dates grown in the United States. The intense summer heat, dry desert air, and mineral-rich irrigation from the valley’s aquifer create flavor that simply cannot be replicated elsewhere.
No Warehouses. No Middlemen. No Preservatives.
Our dates are flash-frozen within hours of harvest and shipped directly to Temecula. There are no distribution centers between our farm and your door. No additives, no sugar coatings, no pesticides. Just dates, frozen at their peak, delivered fast.

How to Store Your Medjool Dates
Medjool dates store exceptionally well — one of the reasons they have been a staple food across the Middle East for thousands of years. When your order arrives from our Sky Valley farm, here is how to get the most out of them:
- Room temperature: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark pantry for up to 1–2 months.
- Refrigerator: An airtight glass jar or container keeps dates fresh for up to 6 months. The cold firms them slightly — let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before eating.
- Freezer: Dates freeze beautifully for up to 1 year. Freeze in a single layer first, then transfer to a bag or container. Thaw at room temperature in 20–30 minutes.
- Bulk orders: For our 10 lb boxes, vacuum sealing individual portions before freezing is the best long-term strategy.
Store your dates long-term
Medjool dates keep for months with the right container. At room temperature in an airtight jar they last 1–2 months. Refrigerated up to 6 months. Frozen up to 1 year without losing flavor or texture.
- Airtight glass jars — Best for pantry storage. Wide-mouth makes it easy to grab a date without a fork. View on Amazon →
- Airtight glass containers — For storing larger quantities in the fridge. Stackable and odor-proof. View on Amazon →
- Freezer bags (gallon) — Freeze dates in portions. Pull out what you need and keep the rest frozen for up to a year. View on Amazon →
- Vacuum food sealer — Best option for bulk orders. Vacuum-sealed dates last 2+ years in the freezer with no freezer burn. View on Amazon →
