Bill attended UC Davis where he majored in Ag Economics, and is a strong proponent of education and ag research. He believes it is vital that the farming industry remains strong, so that good food can be provided for future generations.

Bill is a third-generation grower, producing peaches, plums and nectarines on his own land for his farm, Chandler farms in Selma, California (Better know as the raisin capital of the world.) He is continuing the family farming tradition begun by his grandfather in 1888; he even lives in the same house that he was raised in.  

Bill prefers his peaches right off the tree because it’s high in sugar and versatile enough to enjoy in many ways.
