Very long overdue, but need to sing the praises of the team at Full Belly Farm. We had an amazing…read morefarm tour and farm to table dinner here with a group of 15 in April 2022. Staff gave us a comprehensive tour of farm operations and livestock care. It was so nice to see the animals well cared for. They're so knowledgeable and passionate about their work - it was really inspiring. Afterwards, we had a special set menu dinner with ingredients all from their farm. We were amazed by how flavorful everything was from their salad to the lamb chops and black eyed pea side. Highly recommend for a really unique and memorable experience for a group. Some of us also camped on-site that night! Would love to go back again.

Not so happy. Not a lot of inspiring produce. Mostly very hearty & long lasting. Lots & lots of…read moreonions, carrots, potatoes, kale, etc. When fruit was finally in the box, the tomatoes were already soft, the apriums bruised, & the melons a bit mushy. This was the day we got them! We've waited almost a week for a response after emailing to ask if this was a one off. They were very responsive when I was ordering things. :( They say they pick produce at its ripest but I don't think this means as it is about to turn. The delivery set up is different each week. Sometimes a swap box, sometimes not, sometimes it's awkward to get your stuff, sometimes it's so easy! I won't continue when my subscription is up.

I haven't written a single Yelp review since the Great Pandemic began. I would like to return to…read moreYelp, starting now, writing thankful and positive reviews for establishments that have come through for all of us in a time of crisis. Let's start with Riverdog! I was pretty confident that I'd written about Riverdog in the past and was somewhat shocked to see that I praised only their eggs in my short initial review. Yes, the eggs are great, and everyone knows it. But I can make a long, long list of Riverdog products that consider to be top notch: green garlic, raw chickens, pork chops, carrots, daikons, asparagus tips, onions, black radishes, little gems when they're available, .... At the moment, their early girl and heirloom tomatoes are truly excellent. In recent weeks, I've gotten their squash and green beans -- excellent again, of course. Riverdog prices are not outrageous, in view of the high quality. Their wares merit a detour. The farmers (Trini and Tim) and their employees (shout out here for Becky) are all super-nice. Check them out!

After trying other CSAs in the area I came across Riverdog Farm from a newsletter sent out by my…read morefavorite pork butcher, Fatted Calf. $20 a week for organic produce, why not give it a shot. So I paid for a month in advance (you pay by check either by the month or the quarter) and waited for my first pick up. Fortunately there are a few options for picking up your box in Napa (check their website to see if there's one nearby you) including one only a mile away from our home. Yeah! The pickup location, at least in my area, is in someone's carport which is fairly typical of CSAs, thank goodness for volunteers. Just verify your pick up by signing the clipboard by your name, grab your box or unload it into your own bags (if you take the box return it in your next visit) then prepare to be wowed by the amazing produce. Each week is a little but different and changes along with the season. What's always in the box is the most beautiful organic produce I've ever seen. This weeks box had a bunch of gorgeous rainbow chard which was sautéed along with Fatted Calf sweet sausage served on top of Model bread with poached eggs. Best chard ever! I've posted a few pics of the last few boxes, judge for yourself, Riverdog Farm is amazing. It doesn't get any better than this. PS... They also raise organic fed hogs and chickens. Picked up my first pork share (delivered along with my regular box pick up) and the cuts look so tasty. Can not wait to braise the fresh hocks. Check their website for a complete list of pork share offerings.

Live Power Community Farm CSA is not your typical CSA -- in many ways it's much, much better. But…read moreyou have to know what to expect when you join. It's not the typical "which fruits do you want and we deliver to your door!" type of CSA. This CSA is based in a special kind of farming called biodynamic farming. This is organics on steroids (well, maybe I could have said that a better way, but you get the idea!). Farmers Gloria and Stephen even use horses (hence the truly live power) to work their fields. Another part of it is that, in order to create community and connect people to the farm, members take on part of the work. They don't farm, per se, but they help organize delivery logistics and sorting the vegetables. This CSA is for you if you really care about food activism and reorganizing our economy for equity and sustainability. I've been a member for over a year now and I feel great about the contribution I'm making, the food I'm getting and feeding my children and the friends I've made. I love eating delicious food I can trust!

I live off of one box and nothing goes to waste. Eating seasonal, means eating seasonal. Joining a CSA in the winter means lots of greens, root vegetables and cabbage. I have yet to become bored. I love getting the "potential list of items" email a few days before pick-up. I begin researching recipes so I don't eat braised garlicky kale & bacon every night until spring.After 4 weeks of living off the CSA boxes, my body is much healthier, skin is brighter and I feel great. There is more vegetables than fruit, however, I that is fine with me. If I want more fruit, I can always go to the neighborhood farmers market. I enjoy the personal touch of the newsletters. There customer service is professional and kind. I highly recommend Eatwell Farm.

We were really looking forward to our first box but were extremely disappointed in the quality of…read morethe produce - both the fruits and vegetables. We cancelled our subscription after week one - but have 3 more boxes to pick up since you must pre-order a month at a time. I'm rating it a 2 instead of a 1 because I very much like the CSA model, in theory. We have subscribed to other CSAs in the past and found the quality to be higher. We tried this one because the pick up location was within walking distance of our home. I am reading the five star reviews and wondering how our first impression can be so completely different.

Absolutely wonderful!!! I tried another CSA - no comparison. You can pick which drop-off location…read moreworks best for you, it's organic produce and it's quality produce. I like they give you a sheet that lists what you have received, how to maintain and prepare some of it too. This is my first year trying it, after my friend recommended it. So glad I did this. The only drawback is you can't select the box contents, but I look as it as a challenge to eat something new.

Pumpkin Patch with the Russian River Valley as backdrop…read more We were driving along the Russian River Valley and saw signs along the road leading to this pumpkin patch so we stopped by to check it out. This is a family-run, community-oriented farm in the Sonoma County. The owner was nice and friendly. During our visit he only required that masks be worn at the check-in tent or when we paid for any purchases towards the end (at exit), other than that we just needed to be mindful of keeping 6-ft distance from other patrons. I forgot to bring my mask with me but they supplied a disposable one and I didn't have to run back to the car. The farm field was pretty big and there are pumpkins everywhere, direction of the field was one way so we followed the path, went through a cornfield (don't worry, it's not a maze) and made our way around until the exit. The pumpkin patch will be operating until Halloween. Enjoy lots of pumpkins, decorative gourds, winter squash and lots more. They don't have a corn maze, or fancy rides and bouncy houses which is okay with me. We enjoyed an authentic farm experience and the beautiful backdrop of the Russian River Valley. Review #2415

I currently munch on at least one a day and will be sad when they go out of season. I have also recently enjoyed their winter squash, kale, tomatoes and orange cauliflower. In addition to vegetables they also sell pantry goods like dried beans, pepper sauces, eggs, bread and tortillas. I think the tortillas are a must-buy when they are available, they are delicious and come in a variety of unusual colors. Staff are very friendly and helpful, and have some cute dogs that are sometimes around.

She said I should have told her before taking dog out of the car--/ which was at least 25-30 yards away from the entrance the dogs raced out of towards us...

There was also honey available in the machine. When I opened the eggs up, they were huge! The same size as large eggs I'd buy in a store. The machine was out of large eggs, but now I'm curious to see what those look like... The machine accepts cards and was not accepting cash at the time. It was convenient on the way home from a camping trip and we didn't run into anyone else while buying. We loved getting to see the chicken, geese, and ducks near the machine. And enjoyed reading about the chicken of the month inside the carton. The eggs themselves are beautiful and vary in color. Overall, a convenient and tasty way to get farm fresh eggs.
