Rancho Nuevo Harvesting may have started seven years ago but it’s history spans 37-years of being in the agriculture industry with Jesse Manriquez at the helm of Rancho Harvest, Inc. What started with a single transplanting crew has now grown into a full service harvesting provider specializing in H-2A and Domestic contract farm labor.
As a family owned business Jesse has relied on the support of family to ensure the quality, experience and ethical business practices that Rancho Nuevo is known for and continues to this day. His daughter Jessica has taken over as President and CEO and is taking the company to new heights through new technology and social media while retaining the culture of honesty and reliability that Rancho Nuevo is known for.
