This is a beautiful family-owned farm in the Fresno foothills. I have been several times in late…read morespring/early summer to pick or purchase cherries, and just recently went with a group to pick pomegranates in the fall. I think they may also have a berry patch, but I haven't been for that. Mountain Brook Ranch is a great place to bring the family to enjoy some time outdoors and to pick fruit fresh from the tree. It is easy to spot from the road, and has a lovely farm stand right next to a gravel parking area. Depending on the season, the farm stand has jams and the seasonally fresh/ripe fruit ready for you to buy if you don't want to pick your own. They also have buckets and pruning shears to cut the fruit off the trees available for those who want to pick their own. Please note that usually only certain trees or rows are available to pick from, depending on which trees have ripe fruit and which trees they are saving for other things. Surrounded by beautiful rolling foothills, this is a great family activity, and a great place to take photos while you enjoy time outside. Follow them on Facebook to get updates on when they'll be opened and when fruit is ready. And bring cash or check, as they do not accept credit cards.

We were so glad to come to MBR for their pomegranates. We met Brandon who was so welcoming, giving…read moreus a full run-down of the farm and answering all of our questions. He even walked with us over to the pomegranate trees to help us! We got to sample some of the pomegranates that were already splitting on the trees and we were sold! Sweet and juicy regardless of the size (with some variation of course) but overall we bought about 60 pomegranates and it was the best decision of the week! Highly recommend bringing the family while they offer U-pick!

Excellent food, atmosphere, and service. Easily one of the best dining experiences I've had. Thank…read moreyou Mr. Graham!

For a solve my family and I made reservations a week prior for Yosemite ranch located in the north Fresno area. We were super excited because they're nearby us and we enjoy their food and their hospitality is awesome. We were able to we were beyond words when we found out that they were having a Mother's Day brunch because everybody else was either full or way out the way for traveling and I like to be local. I mean reservations for my family and I and once we arrive we were immediately seated to our table. Server name was Maxine she did excellent job for servicing the area that we were in. I inform Maxine that my son is special needs and that he needed his food first and she was able to accommodate that which was super awesome. The decor is relaxing and they have a TVs up for games and everybody is talking and having a great time. We order the surf and turf sushi rolls the wagu cheeseburger meal and the French toast was delicious. We really enjoyed brunch today at yosemite's ranch for celebrating Mother's Day.

I had a camping trip to Yosemite National Park planned in September and knew I wanted to propose to my Fiancé while on the trip and didn't know exactly how I would plan this. We are avid outdoor/hikers and love horses. When I found Yosemite Trails Horseback Adventures, I knew that this was the PERFECT place for me to propose to the love of my life. I wasn't quite sure how the proposal would go down to begin with, but Cami and the entire team made the experience unbelievable. I felt like part of the family and cannot thank them enough. They scouted out various different locations along the route for the spot prior to my arrival and communicated with me every step of the way. Jolene found the location on the trail, and was our guide. We did a private trial ride as I wanted the experience to be intimate. Jolene was INCREDIBLE and we cannot thank her enough. She was an expert guide and made the entire experience a memory we will never forget. Jolene took pictures for us and planned the entire proposal location, she was fantastic in every regard. The horses were beautiful and looked extremely well taken care off and loved. The trail ride itself was the best we have been on, and we have done quite a few. It was beautiful, fun going through the creeks and riding up/down the mountainsides. We cannot thank Cami, Jolene and the entire Yosemite Trails Horseback Adventure Team for the memory and experience of a lifetime, and we cannot wait to do it again!
