I started receiving a weekly share from Lunita Farm last summer and I've never tasted better carrots. Throughout the season, I also got really tasty tomatoes, eggplants, padrone peppers, figs, melons, and beets, to name a few. In the winter, we get every kind of leafy green imaginable, as well as a turnips, winter squash, and storage onions. This spring has so far yielded a beautiful crop of fava beans (a new favorite of mine) and some amazing strawberries. Yum! Each share is packed with a wonderful variety of delicious veggies (some familiar, some new) and a news letter with updates from the farm, a recipe, and instructions on how to prepare some of the less common produce. Everything is grown organically here in Sonoma, although the farm is not certified organic. As I've said, this is some of the best produce I've ever tasted, and it's obvious that the vegetables are tended to with care. Plus, it's a wonderful challenge to cook with whatever is in the share each week, and it's fun to see the contents of the share (and my menus) change with the seasons. I can't recommend Lunita Farm highly enough.

Their products are also available at some farmers markets http://www.salmoncreekranch.com/Farmers%20Mkt%20Schedule.html The Ranch also has a few secluded campsites, you need to bring your own potable water, there is a porta potty but no showers.

Surrounded by hundreds of pots of assorted peppers Kevin McEnnis speaks fondly about his produce,…read moreand he displays an unmistakable passion in describing his New Mexican chiles and his Poblano chile peppers. He should. For these, his mixed sweet peppers and his Early Girl tomatoes are the crops that his Quetzal Farm are best known for. Kevin and his business partner, Keith Abeles, operate the 10 acre farm in Santa Rosa, and they recently took time out from their busy weekend schedules to offer our Berkeley-based group a tour of their farm. Kevin started the farm in 1999 and his farm has been certified organic since 2002. Kevin tells us he named the farm after the national bird of Guatemala for it was there where he planted his first farm. He is the core farmer at this site while Keith promotes sales and administrative duties. The location of the farm is key to the produce harvested here. Here they have the intense Santa Rosa heat coupled with a prominent marine layer to successfully produce warm weather crops such as tomatoes side by side with cold weather crops such as lettuce. Kevin tells us the unique weather helps his produce to mature slowly creating a more vibrant flavor. We took a walking tour into one of their greenhouses, and as soon as we entered the enclosure we noticed it was like walking into a sauna. Inside the greenhouse our group marveled at the specialty herbs, brightly colored radishes and a field full of green garlic with many of us stopping to take a photo or two. Two dozen in my case! Back outside Kevin described in detail some of their sustainable farming techniques and showed us why they use raised soil beds to take advantage of the unique climate and better drainage. Like many organic farms they create their own compost here and the farm grows cover crops to protect their soil as good soil is a vital part to any successful farm. While the farm is well known for only specific types of produce Keith told us that their recent trials with lemon cucumbers and English cucumbers have done exceptionally well. In addition the farm dries their own chiles and sells these and freshly made salsas at local farmers markets. Following our tour Kevin and Keith led us into the barn, broke out some tortilla chips and allowed our group to sample some of their tasty salsas. I loved both their Chipotle Salsa and Hot Salsa so much I purchased a pint of each along with some super fresh produce that was picked for our group that morning. Produce from Quetzal Farm can be found locally at the Thursday Berkeley Farmer's Market, the Saturday Berkeley Farmer's Market and the Sunday Marin Farmer's Market. In addition, their dried chiles are sold at Bi-Rite Market in San Francisco, Rockridge Market Hall in Oakland, the Santa Rosa Community Market and selected Whole Foods markets in the North Bay.
