Orsetti Seed Company supplies commercial hybrid vegetable seeds to growers throughout the Watsonville area and Santa Cruz County. Our San Juan Bautista research facility is less than 30 minutes from Watsonville — varieties are trialed under the same Pacific coastal conditions that define your production window.
Santa Cruz County's coastal production zone shares the same marine influence, fog patterns, and downey mildew pressure as the Salinas Valley immediately to the south. Cole crop growers in the Watsonville area benefit from varieties trialed under those exact conditions. BRAVADO broccoli's coastal adaptation and disease tolerance profile reflects decades of evaluation in this environment.
