The Berryessa Fruit Growers Union was a cooperatively-owned dried fruit packer in the Berryessa district east of San Jose. The group was organized in 1893[1]. The group was mentioned as a drop-off site for the California Cured Fruit Association in 1900[2]. The group was also a member of the Santa Clara County Fruit Exchange which represented several of the Valley cooperatives. The organization went out of business in 1905[3].
