Gizdich Ranch is a charming historic ranch in Watsonville, founded in 1937 by Croatian immigrant Vincent John Gizdich as an apple orchard and animal farm. Today, the farm is under fourth-generation family management and is open to the public seven days a week during business hours, operating as a pick-your-own-fruit business since the 1960s.

Visitors can peruse the faculty's orchards and pick their own berries and apples at their leisure, with pre-picked fruits also available for purchase. More than 16 varieties of year-round and seasonal pies are available at the Eata Nita Pie Shop, including sugar-free pies and holiday pies. Homemade jams and apple juice are also sold, along with unique Olallie hybrid berry flavored ice creams.
