The Porch Life

This is where it all comes together, where hard work and patience earn their reward. At Traina, we’ve always believed in the slower-is-better lifestyle. Maybe that’s because we work with Sun Dried Fruit, a product that can’t be hurried.
But it also makes sense in the lives we lead.
We call it The Porch Life, inspired by the front porch of the original Traina Ranch seen in our logo. For the better part of a century, it’s remained a place where family and friends gather to share stories, food, and wisdom. Pull up a chair and join us.
