These are some of the freshest and best Almonds I have eaten in my life…read more The sales rep was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about almonds. He was able to tell me why their almonds taste so good (fresh, better ingredients, no sugar just honey, etc) and the prices were more than reasonable (5 bags for $25). Just so you know when I say the best almonds ever I mean it. I have driven as far as Modesto to get Almonds. I also attended the Almost Festival in Ripon, CA and these Almonds were better than those the Amish were selling (Root's Nut and Tree Farms). Heck they even beat out Oliver's. There are plenty of flavors: Cinnamon Honey, Orange Honey, Lemon Honey (tastes like fruit loops!!!), Butter Toffee, Chili Lemon, Wasabi, etc. To catch these guys you will need to go to the festivals. They are at all of them. I caught them in Alameda at the Spring Festival on Park Street. Apparently there is one in Fremont in August. I'm planning on bringing $100 and buying enough to get me through Winter. I spent just $31 today and i am so regretting not buying more.

I haven never actually been to Central Valley Foods - this review is specifically for the Almonds…read moretheir rep brought to the Tahoe Art Festival last month. We bought five bags of almonds in various flavors; Tamari, Cinnamon Honey, Garlic, Jalapeno Cheddar & Butter Toffee. We've been powering through them - seriously using them for everything from snacks to cupcake garnishes. They are SO delicious! And pretty affordable too. I also appreciate that I recognize every single ingredient they use. For example, the Cinnamon Honey Almonds contain dry roasted almonds, sugar, brown sugar, water, honey and cinnamon.

I usually get the 10 lb bags, but you can buy anywhere from 1 to 25 lbs depending on your needs. These are truly the best almonds you can find -- nothing like the pasteurized ones you get in stores.

If you care about what you eat and where it comes from, this is the place to get your almonds. Highly recommend!

Love that they also have olive oil and sauces! They have cold drinks in the frig and ice cream too. It is well organized and VERY clean inside ( air conditioning as well). It is cutely decorated and I bought some really fresh veggies! The 2 young ladies at the cash register who very friendly and helpful! I will be back very soon to get some more delicious fruits and veggies! Awesome experience and worth a few miles out!

Our family has been frequenting Charter Family Farm fruit stand every season for as long as I can…read moreremember. We always enjoy the stone fruits, different varieties of watermelon, corn, etc. However since it has transitioned to The Harvest Bend, the soul of the place isn't quite there any more. No longer are we greeted by familiar faces stocking peppers and tomatoes in the outside bins, rather those bins are generally empty and unwelcoming... the watermelons and corn that were always stocked in the entrance have been empty or sold out some days, as the volume of stock was seemingly not ready to out out (leaving gaps in availability that were not there before)... the prices seem to have gone up and additions of overpriced pies, popcorn, and soaps from outside the immediate area make it seem more like a new generation boutique rather than a reliable family farm stand. Most recently, at the farm stand we were buying about 10 pounds of stone fruit, assorted veggies, 24 ears of corn and 4 yellow watermelons. And as we have always done in the past, we simply informed the team member at the counter that we would also be grabbing four watermelons on our way out, as our hands were full with the rest of the produce. She informed us she couldn't ring them up until we brought them in because different sizes were different prices, despite their own signage saying they were one flat price ($7 per yellow watermelon) - almost as if we were going to steal them - because when we came back in (after holding up the line to quickly grab them), they were in fact all the same price after all (no difference based on size - just a flat price). I don't know, but this place has lost its soul, is overpriced, and is seemingly more focused on branding, buzz, and social reach/engagement rather than what matters to its patrons.

I remember buying fruits from there when the CUESA farmers market was at the back of the Hyatt Regency Hotel as it was named back then. You get the drift. Various family members and friends man their booth on Tuesdays and Saturdays at the Ferry Farmers Market in San Francisco with the owners present Saturdays. My preference used to be shopping on Tuesdays to avoid the crowds and hustle bustle tourists. Due to the dwindling selection Tuesdays and a lesser crowd due to the pandemic, Saturdays are not as bad as normal, not to say I like it this way. On the first Saturday in March, I noticed that a few customers buying some flowers and, with Chinese New Year just wrapping up and the Cherry blossom season about to start, I bought a bunch for my family. They turned out to be peach blossoms (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wdzZ2zYvI1lC-nB5zGEyOQ&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q); my mom and her caregiver immediately recognized them and I, being the naiive one, felt like I just learned how to change a lightbulb. They are a nice addition to our living room with some of the Chinese New Year's plants withering away and my Costco tulip plant already blooming and long gone. With it being March, a tweener time fruits wise, they no longer have a stand on Tuesdays and likely will not be back until April when stone fruits begin to be harvested. Apricots, peaches, nectarines are the probably next to hit the market. And with the warmer weather, the increasing number of vaccinated people, and a general feeling of somewhat normalcy, things are beginning to look a little brighter now. Before you know it, it'll be cherry season. Can't wait!

In the gift shop you can buy delicious baked goods, jams, honey, all kinds of things! We bought a pre-baked pie called "fruit of the forest" which we had the next day at home, it was delicious!! As far as our meal, we ate at the Italian restaurant. We started with the Blue Cheese Bruschetta, which was amazing! My entree was the country fried steak, with mashed potatoes and a house salad. The steak was so tender, no knife needed, and it and the potatoes were covered in delicious gravy! That being said though, the menu does not say that the gravy is full of mushrooms, so if you're not a mushroom fan, you may want to skip this dish. My spouse had the Muffuletta sandwich which was featured on Triple D! He said it was great but you really need to love olives because the olive spread was very heavy on the sandwich. I am looking forward to going back to Granzella's very soon!!

They should consider bringing in some inventory of the sort. But, all and all very happy with our experience here. It was quick, easy, the facilities are nice and new, staff was friendly and after searching around I did eventually find a healthier alternative refreshment. Will be back to support this establishment again in the future!
