Our Story
At Coachella’s Best Dates, everything starts with intention - how we care for our soil, our trees, and our community. Our dates aren’t just a crop. They’re a tradition passed down, rooted in the Coachella Valley sun, sustained by values that stretch across generations.
From our family to your table, this is how we grow
Our Values
We believe good food should be honest, delicious, and deeply connected to the land it comes from. That’s why we farm organically, using sheep to manage groundcover and enrich our soil. We don’t just grow dates - we
grow relationships, rooted in sustainability, community, and care.
Organic always. Grown ethically. Shipped lovingly.
A Community Vision
In the mid-20th century, Rancho Del Rey was envisioned as a 92-acre semi-retirement community surrounded by farmland, lakes, and palm trees. These plans - though only partially realized - reflect the same spirit we still bring to our land today: stewardship, sustainability, and service to others.
We didn’t just build a business. We cultivated a vision.
Deep Roots in the Date Capital
Even in the 1960s, Coachella Valley was known nationwide for producing the finest dates in the world. We’re proud to be part of that legacy. It’s why we still harvest by hand, let fruit ripen under the desert sun, and send each order out with care.
The Name Behind the Taste
Del Rey Farms is the home behind the brand. “Coachella’s Best Dates” is what we’re known for but it’s Del Rey that grows every palm, tends every grove, and makes every date box possible.
It’s a little farm with a big heart. A place where good things grow - and grow better together.
