Our company builds the most durable, high-performance nut and fruit harvesting machines and offers the biggest customer support network in the industry. We set ourselves apart with our knowledge, not just in design and manufacturing, but in operating and maintaining nut and tree harvesting equipment. We are passionate about what we do and are dedicated to doing it better than anyone else. Orchard Machinery Corporation (OMC) was formed in 1961, producing hydraulic tree shakers to enable a more efficient prune harvest. Like most agricultural engineering milestones which preceded it such as the cotton gin, combine harvester and the all-purpose tractor, OMC’s tree shaker replaced time consuming and labor intensive field work with a reliable mechanized alternative. This technology provided farmers and growers with consistent results and higher output at a lower cost. Don Mayo joined OMC in 1970, bringing with him his sales experience and agricultural engineering knowledge from John Deere. He quickly set about expanding and improving OMC and its product line. In 2004 he took full ownership of OMC. Don oversaw the growth of the company from a small machine shop in its early years to today’s truly modernized international organization. OMC offered not just tree shakers to regional producers but complete orchard equipment solutions that decrease costs, increase production output and reduce the physical toll on farmers and their employees all over the world. In 2010, OMC’s acquisition of Wesco Trailer Manufacturing and Sales further expanded its role as a provider of reliable, high performance products and solutions to the agriculture and transportation industry. Today OMC offers a full line of orchard harvesting solutions, from tree shakers to material handling systems to transportation products along with offering unparalleled service and support in the industry. OMC proudly manufactures all its products in the United States.

The Wilbur family’s roots in California agriculture date back to 1869. Since their arrival in the Sacramento Valley, the members of the Wilbur family have been pioneers in the farming industry. They were one of the first to plant orchards in the fertile soil of the Yuba and Feather River bottoms– today considered the preeminent prune and walnut producing area of the world. Five generations later, the Wilbur Ranch continues to be a leader in California agriculture with over 3,000 acres of prunes and walnuts. The cornerstone of the Wilbur family’s farming philosophy is good stewardship of the land for future generations. Founded in 1992, Wilbur Packing was launched to ensure that our commitment to excellence in food quality and safety is carried through to the end-user. Since its inception, Wilbur Packing has worked diligently to develop loyal customer networks in the domestic market, as well as in Europe and Asia, with buyers who share our commitment to quality.

Firestorm is a forestry and emergency services corporation made up of fire and land management professionals. Founded by James Wills in 1995, Firestorm began with a memorandum of understanding for a single organized fire crew on the Lassen National Forest located in Northern California. Firestorm was the first private organization to hold a fire crew contract with the United States Forest Service and National Park Service in California. In order to provide quality services to the federal agencies, we were in constant search for more work to keep our fire crews working, physically fit and well trained. This search for forestry work began our Forestry Services Division. Our hand crews and engines were performing thousands of acres of prescribed burning and forestry health projects each season, while waiting for the call to assist in the suppression of wildland fires. We then diversified our Forestry Operations with the utilization of heavy equipment, mulchers and chippers, to perform thinning and fire hazard reduction projects. Today, Firestorm’s Emergency Services division now provides multiple fire crews, wildland engines and overhead personnel throughout the United States for fire and all risk incidents. Each year we provide hundreds of thousands of personnel hours towards the support of emergency situations. We are now providing Fire Safety Consulting for both large and small landowners to mitigate the threat of wildfires in the wildland urban interface.
