A Legacy of Family Farming
About
Generations of Family Leadership
ABC Tree Farms and Pick of the Patch Pumpkins has been a family-owned and operated business for over seventy years, bringing joy and seasonal fun to families across California. It all began with Jerry Klima Sr, who started harvesting California Silver Tip Christmas trees in the high Sierras and selling them at his retail sites in San Francisco. Through hard work and a deep commitment to quality, Jerry Sr. built a thriving business that his family would proudly carry on.
As the business grew, Jerry Klima Jr followed in his father’s footsteps. After finishing university, he took over the family business in the 1980s, expanding it to include multiple retail locations across the San Francisco Bay Area. In 1983, the Klima family bought their first Christmas tree farm near Portland, Oregon, which became a key part of the family’s operation.
Now in its third generation, ABC Tree Farms continues to provide farm-grown pumpkins and Christmas trees, delivered with the same care and passion that started it all. What began with a few retail locations has expanded to over eighteen seasonal Pumpkin Patches and Christmas Tree sites, serving communities throughout the Bay Area and Southern California.
