The prices are great and their meat buyers club is the best way to get farm fresh and locally produced products with no hassle. You just go to their website/meat buyers club and click on the order form. You choose what you want and how often, it is NOT DICTATED TO YOU like so many other wine, fruit, cheese and CSA baskets/ clubs operate. We try to get a delivery every month, but when we are vacation or out of town, it's nice to know we don't have too. Recently the hamburger we purchased made the family reunion BBQ a success- everyone raved, even the picky ones! It was the quality of the beef. Thanks Sinclair Family Farm!

We have picked up mandarins during Christmas from the Little farm stand at the corner of Bell Road…read moreand Interstate 80 in Auburn for years. Now my girls are grown. I picked up a bag Christmas Eve because her and her husband were coming to visit and it's become a family tradition to enjoy mandarins. However, this year within two days, they all started to turn moldy and have bad spots. So when my daughter was here, they were grossed out. I know business is tough and you got to sell things and make a living, but once you lose your quality control, people will never come back, I'm going to have to find them somewhere else in the future.

We didn't stay very long but walked around about a quarter mile and bought a whole bag filled with Mandarin, blood oranges, and Cara Cara oranges - $1.90/ lb.

The ranch is off Uncle Joe's Lane along Ridge Road near Newcastle. They also sell at the Sunday Farmers Market in downtown Sacramento. The ranch is cash only, so hit up the ATM before heading over. However, what they lack in amenities, they make up for in value. You can get a fresh bag of organic oranges at half the price they charge in stores while supporting local business. What more can you ask for? S & J is definitely worth a stop.

I love the rat trap sandwich, and no matter what sandwich I get, I always get it on their Dutch crunch bread. They fell the sandwich generously and everything is always fresh.

It's fairly close off of I80. A historic part of town with plenty of charm. The Newcastle Cheese Shop appears to be very popular. People come from all over to try. I love the photos and woodworking all around. The staff were very friendly and personable. A recommendation was to try the hot pastrami sandwich with a Dutch Crunch roll. It was super delicious. There's plenty of seating or you can take it to go. They package your sandwich nicely. Out of the three places I reviewed, this was my fav. I'll be out again to try out another sandwich plus the clam chowder.

You can ask to sample a mandarin while you're there. He let me choose one from any crate. Currently, you can buy 5 lb for $10. The 10 lb bag for $22 isn't as good a deal, maybe because you are purchasing the cardboard box? You can also buy crates for $50, which is the best value. I think a crate contains 40 lb. This has been the only farm I have seen so far that allows you to purchase so huge a quantity, especially so early in the season. Mandarins are juicy. You may be able to buy other farm produce here, like persimmons and nuts. The Fuyu persimmons looked so perfect and beautiful that I bought a big bag for $10. You can pay by credit card. Mandarin Hill Orchards is off English Colony Way, part of the Mandarin Trail. Happy Dayz Vineyard is located on the same grounds. I like that you can see and drive through the scenic mandarin orange orchard when you shop here. Even the railroad crossing you have to drive over is pretty. This was the best mandarin farm experience and stop so far.
