When Gold Rush era settlers flocked to the state in the mid-1800’s, they brought many different types of fruit trees along with them, including Bartlett pears. They soon discovered that pears flourished in California’s fertile soil.  In fact, a quarter of all pears grown in the United States come from the Golden State.
