The Company

From San Juan Bautista.
To the world.

Orsetti Seed Company develops hybrid vegetable seeds for commercial growers, food processors, and distributors. Seven active crop categories. Research based in San Juan Bautista, California. International distribution through an independent dealer network.

Primary research is based in San Juan Bautista — a greenhouse and field operation built specifically for variety development. Depending on what each species requires, plant breeders also work at sites throughout California, Arizona, and internationally.

The catalog covers seven active categories, with emphasis on hybrid varieties for processing and fresh markets: processing tomatoes, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, peppers, melons, and lettuce. For brassicas and lettuce, we also maintain open-pollinated breeding programs under PVP protection.

CCOF organic certification has been part of the operation since founding — covering crops, warehouse, mill, and third-party packaging. Varieties reach growers and distributors through an independent dealer network worldwide.

Research & Development

No variety ships
without a trial.

Each commercial variety runs through 6–8 growing seasons of field trials before it ships. Real fields. Real disease pressure. Real harvest conditions. That's not the exception — that's the standard.

The research team at San Juan Bautista — plant breeders, lab scientists, field technicians — works daily on improving the character and quality of every variety, and maintains the lines that supply stock seed for production.

What we grow

Seven crop categories.
No more.

The catalog is narrow on purpose. We carry what we can support with real field data and real technical support. Every variety has been trialed before it ships.

How we work

What we're
built around.

01

Focused catalog.

We develop and sell vegetable seed — that's the whole business. A narrow catalog means we can back every variety with real field data and real support. We don't carry varieties we can't service properly.

02

Direct communications.

The research team and the people who answer technical questions are the same group. Variety performance, availability, specifications — one call. No support tiers between grower and breeder.

03

Quality before volume.

No variety ships without a trial. That standard applies to our catalog and to any production or milling work we take on. Consistent quality is the product — not a marketing position.
