Why Altitude 1950?

This isn't just an apricot tree.

The story of high-altitude plateaus coming back to life...

The name "Altitude 1950" originated from our research on apricot cultivation at high altitudes. Today, this research is evolving into a community movement that supports nature conservation and sustainable production.

The natural climate created by high altitude, cool nights, and sunny days gives apricots their characteristic character. Scientific studies show that these conditions can have positive effects on the development of phenolic compounds and aroma. Altitude 1950 is a continuation of research that began in the highland lands that were passed down through generations in our family and left unused for years. Today, these orchards aim to demonstrate the potential of high-altitude farming, showing that environmentally friendly production and sustainable rural living are possible.

Our apricot orchard has won awards and prizes in various competitions in Türkiye, America, and England.

50 trees will be adopted in 2027.
