Fresh fruit in big boxes SO worth the price!! Fruit is sooo sweet and they got varieties of dried fruit too

Wow! Circle k ranch is this hidden gem off of Manning in Fresno California. They sell nuts and seeds inside the store for about 10-60$ depending on what you plan on ordering. Upon entering, there is a cool wind that flows from the top to keep the inside air conditioned for customers. The customer service is friendly and there are plenty of choices of seeds and various nuts: peanuts walnuts, almonds, pistachios etc. in addition to these nuts and sunflower seeds, there are dried and boxed fruit to order. These are all fresh from the farmlands close by. The trucks bring boxes of fruits and various nuts daily and are open daily. Although it is difficult to get into the place due to minor traffic and having a tiny sign on the side road, it is one of those gems to remember. The parking lot is covered by trees for some shade and there are workers making a lot of noise moving crates of supplies in and out of the factory and into the store. Pictures will be shown of what supplies are in depending on the season. There is no guarantee your favorite is in due to what is grown throughout the seasons. The boxer crate of fruits are the go to. I got myself some plums for 14$ many times before, but since I went here out of the season, they didn't have any in stock at the time. The service was great, the prices are generous and that air conditioning was the ticket to five stars! The boxes hold approximately 80-100 of whatever you get. They have plums, peaches, apricots, pears, apples and oranges. The prices vary but expect 14-15$ per box. The plums are slightly more expensive than the other fruits due to a lower supply of them. In very rare occasions, there are also persimmons which could be close to 20 dollars. Lastly, there are bathrooms inside and outside. The outside ones are the bushes. There was no WiFi from what I found and the information about opening and closing times are accurate where listed. read more

Amazing Dried Mango!!! Have yet to try the other things I bought from here but looking forward to it after how much my partner and I enjoyed the mango read more

This could be one of the best places to get large delicious tomatoes, sweet red onions, peaches or nectaries, and grapes. Very reasonably priced for excellent quality! It's conveniently located just about a mile east of the 99 on Manning. read more

Rather disappointing, seriously. This is a cutsie store associated with a high profile, commercial fruit and nut packing operation. Their purpose appears to be drawing in unsuspecting tourists with too much money burning in their pockets. Relatively unimpressed. I guess it would be ok if you are looking for snacks like packaged nuts, dried fruits, candy covered snacks, chocolate pretzels, etc. They did have variety gift packs as well as single packages of each of their products. And there were lots to choose from. Kind of a Harry & David, or Hadley's kind of thing for Central Valley nuts and snack goodies. But priced too high, IMO. OK. I have to admit, however, that I am munching on some of their lightly salted pistachios and fresh unsalted almonds as I write, and they are sweet as only a fresh nut can be. If you are looking for tree ripened, sweet, edible fruit as we were, keep looking. In the middle of August, one would think there would be plenty here. The store offered a small selection of fruits (peaches, nectarines, plums) that were picked with the intention of shipping, i.e. they were hard as rocks from picking too early, then put in cold storage, resulting in a lack of any fruity fragrance whatsoever. Perhaps really good for target practice, as they will never get any sweeter. The only good thing were the sweet grapes. There are plenty of roadside stands and other fruit farms where you can find the really good, but probably less handsome stuff. Get yourself a copy of the Fresno County Blossom Trail map, or simply drive aimlessly around the many country roads that surround the vast orchards for more than a couple dozen square miles. You will find shacks scattered all over. You will know you have discovered the good stuff...when you give them a sniff. I can give you a tip: I recommend looking up the Friesen Family Farms for one. read more

They have banana chips, but do not grow bananas. They also have really fresh looking dried prunes and a variety of nuts.

Stopped there by chance driving thru. They have some of the best pistachios I've ever eaten. And if you love raisin. They are giant and their prices are great. I wish I had bought more. Yum read more

My favorite place to buy summer fruit when visiting near by Fresno. Freshly picked summer fruit that can be purchased by the case at a very reasonable price. Doesn't get any better than this. read more

The raisins are huge, and soft, and come in a variety. The pistachios are so fresh, tasty, and easy to open. We were checking out the "fruit trail" through the valley on vacation from Texas. We hit a gem! Going to order online. The BEST fruits and nuts! read more

Great little Country Store nestled between Selma & Fowler, just a mile east of HWY 99. In the summer, you can get some great tasting peaches, nectarines, plums & grapes either by the bag or by a 20lb. box for under $10 !!! This is truly a very unique place as everything is directly onsite. You can see the fruit on the trees (out on the ranches), can see where it is processed (packing house), and then, you are able to purchase it directly from the Country Store. This is one of my favorite places to stop in before heading out on a road trip to get some snacks, pistachios, raisins, & of course can forget the chocolate coated nuts as well. For those of you passing through, this is a nice, clean & family friendly place for you to stretch your legs and have a snack in the picnic area. If you call ahead you may be able to schedule a tour of the grounds read more
