Forty miles west of the railroad and 6 miles inland from the ocean, just back of the Coast Range in the dry hill country of northern California, at an elevation of about 1,000 feet, lived Albert F. Etter. In 1894 he made Ettersburg his home, and established his fruit breeding farm and nursery that supplied new genetic material to breeders and growers in this and foreign countries. One of his varieties is now grown in Europe and Australia, and others are in the ancestry of many of America's widely grown varieties.
