History

Black Beauty Dates from Coachella Valley

In the early 1900s, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) sent agricultural explorers abroad to bring back exotic foods to cultivate in the United States. In 1936, D.G. Snif discovered Abada dates growing wild in a riverbed in Brawley, California. The varietal name was created out of the first names of Snif and his wife, Abby and Dana.

They began to import date palm offshoots from North Africa and the Middle East to the climatically similar desert areas in the Coachella Valley in California, which proved to be an excellent place to grow dates. In the first part of the 20th century, the Middle East was very popular in American pop culture.

In 1947, the Date Festival became an annual event celebrating the correlation between California and the Middle East. Most of the offshoots were then sold to a date garden near Indio, California where in 1955 eighteen Abada palms were in production.
