Biography
From almonds & oranges in California's Central Valley to grapefruits in South Texas, Stewart Resnick and his wife Lynda owe their billions to nature's bounties.
They cofounded and continue to co-own the Wonderful Company, among the largest farming operations in America. As a couple, they share a fortune worth an estimated $10.8 billion.
Nearly half of all Americans purchase one of their products, including pistachios, almonds, Halos oranges, POM Wonderful and Fiji Water.
Stewart bought his first piece of California farmland in 1978 as a hedge against inflation.
They own a majority stake in the Kern Water Bank, one of the country's largest underground water storage facilities.
