The History of Blossom Valley

The book covers the history of Blossom Valley when the valley was first settled and tells how the valley received its name. It tells of how Mr. Elmer G. Blossom, at the age of 19, started developing 100 acres of flatland in the lower end of the valley. Mr. Blossom, with the help of one laborer and a mule, cleared the entire 100 acres. He turned the property into a productive ranch growing a variety of fruit trees and vegetables. The book includes over 100 pictures taken during the early development and operation of the property. The pictures came from the family albums. The pictures show some of the old farming equipment and illustrates how it was used in farming.
