About Me

From almonds & oranges in California's Central Valley to seedless lemons in South Texas, Lynda Resnick and her husband Stewart are worth billions from farming as the world's leading grower of tree nuts and America's largest citrus grower. They cofounded and 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. Lynda dropped out of college at 19 to start her own ad agency. Stewart came to her looking for marketing help. Both previously divorced, they met in the 1970s when she provided marketing help for a burgeoning janitorial business. Lynda focuses on philanthropy; the Resnicks have pledged more than $2 billion to charitable causes, including climate change research.
