Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?
We primarily serve growers in Merced, Stanislaus, Madera, and San Joaquin counties. Our headquarters is in Winton, CA, right in the heart of the Central Valley. For larger projects, we can make special arrangements for work outside our primary service area.
How do I get a quote for orchard removal?
Give us a call at (209) 358-1759 or email orchardremoval@cfsagriculture.com. We'll ask about your acreage, crop type, and project timeline. Then we'll schedule a site visit if needed and provide a detailed, no-obligation estimate. Most quotes are turned around within 48 hours.
What happens to the trees after orchard removal?
We offer flexible options. Trees can be processed into biomass and delivered to co-generation facilities, chipped and spread on-site for soil health, or hauled away entirely. We handle the full lifecycle so you don't have to coordinate with multiple vendors.
Do you offer custom harvesting for crops other than almonds?
Our primary custom harvest operation focuses on almonds, where we have the most experience and the right equipment. However, we also support walnut operations and can discuss other tree nut crops. Contact us to talk about your specific needs.
How long has CFS Agriculture been in business?
Custom Farm Services was established in 1969, making us one of the longest-running family-owned agricultural service companies in the Central Valley. We're now in our 4th generation, led by General Manager Jed Kruppa. Over five decades of experience means we've seen it all and can handle any challenge.
