About CDFC
The California Dried Fruit Coalition (CDFC) was formed as a cooperative effort by the California date, fig, prune and raisin industries to promote the nutritional value and versatility of uses for these traditional dried fruits to policy makers influencing food purchase decisions for America’s schools and foodservice agencies.

California accounts for nearly all of the national production of California dates, figs, prunes and raisins. The following counties, including Riverside, Imperial, Fresno, Sutter, Madera, Merced, Los Angeles, Tulare, Kern, Kings, Butte, Yuba, Tehama and Glenn, are the leading production areas.

Dates have no added sugars and are a naturally low moisture fruit. They are a good source of fiber, have 6 essential vitamins, 7 minerals, and are heart healthy.
California Fig Advisory Board
