The Olivera Egg Ranch will close for good next month and staff members say the ranch will be sold, making room for new homes to be built.

A generational family business that survived the pandemic, bird flu’s shocks to suppliers, and rollicking egg prices is leaving to make way for a housing development in the Diablo Range

A piece of San Jose's history is coming to an end. Olivera Egg Ranch, a family-run business that has provided fresh eggs to the South Bay community for over 75 years, is scheduled to close its doors on March 31.

The Olivera Egg Ranch first opened in 1949, and on Saturday, loyal customers stopped by to pick up their last eggs before the business shuts down at the end of March. Customers have driven to the San Jose-based ranch’s drive-thru for decades to buy farm fresh eggs.
