California Avocado Grower Feature: Simpatica Farms

When Jamie Johnson and Bryan Berkett first met at a restaurant in the spring of 2012, a 20 minute chat turned into a four-hour discussion of values, culture and shared experiences. Both were influenced by their family businesses, Johnson from a fourth generation California farming family and Berkett from a fourth generation real estate family. They each cite their grandfather as having positive influence on their life.
