The Man Behind Our Avocados

known by locals as Avocado Bob.

Bob Siemer (aka Avocado Bob) has been in the avocado business for nearly 50 years. His family owned farm, Del Rey Avocado, is located near the San Luis Rey River in San Diego County. 

Dating back to 1969, the multi-generational business is currently run by Bob and his daughter, Jessica.

"I always have a box of avocados in my car. Everyone takes an avocado and they always give me a smile."

Watch Bob explain what goes into making his avocados special:

with Avocado, Monterey Jack, and Cabbage Slaw

with Pico De Gallo and Avocado
