Visited August 13th...see my receipt. THIS THE CHARTER…read moreFAMILY FRUITSTAND NOT CARTER!!!! Wow - what a pleasant find! This place is about 5 miles from highway 5 in Williams. (Take highway 20 from I 5 towards Clearlake). They had such a great selection of fruits and vegetables at a reasonable price! Plus different flavors of pistachios.They also sell honey and even pies! 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.

K&J Orchards brought some wondrous stone fruits to the Fort Mason Farmers Market San Francisco…read more Based in Sutter and Solano Counties, K&J grow more then 180 varieties of Fruits & Nuts. The booth sold out of most of the offerings today, but even what was left looked so good. They are also related to Pomet a farm To-Table restaurant in Oakland.

Asian pears. Not…read morejust Asian pears as in one variety, but try Shin Li, Shinko (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=fj-H5cO_Ip3yJyaZ-H41xQ&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) (my mom's preference), Yali, Olympia, Nakata... well, you get the drift. 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!

We got there at opening time. No hostess, nobody in the restaurant. Went and asked the deli counter…read moreperson, who said the hostess/waitress would be right out. Took a few more min waiting after that. Service was good after that, tho. Decor's a contrived-country-farm theme. Cute. The store's worth a look, too. Waitress recommended the shrimp omelette. It was a little bland to me, but maybe that's par for the course for a shrimp omelette, idk. The ratio of shrimp to veggies to egg worked well. Biscuit's an enormous monstrosity, so good! Hash browns, terrible.

Everything about Granzella's was fantastic! Service was so friendly, the food was great with huge…read moreportions, and there's something for everyone inside! Not only is there an Italian restaurant and a pizza/sports bar area, there's a deli, gift shop, and gelato/coffee bar! 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!!
