Underdog Acres MUSHROOMS!…read more I wanted to give a Huge shout out to Court and Levi owners and operators Underdog Acres. They are a small farm that is completely licensed and trained in food safety and handling. I contacted them through their website, underdogacresca.com and although they normally sell online, they do make local deliveries within 15 miles of Volcano, and will be available via farmer's markets, and local markets. They were nice enough to allow me to come to their farm to get some Lion's Mane mushrooms. I was taken in by their post about their little farm, and I have always wanted to try "exotic" mushrooms. I haven't really gone beyond Portobello or Shitake before this. When I arrived, a few minutes early, they were just coming out of their "hoop-house" with my fresh pickings. They showed me the lot, and I bought all 1-1/4 pounds of what they picked. When I first got home, I followed Court's advice to use Adobo seasoning, and fried one up in a little coconut oil. OMG. so good! Texture was like fried zucchini. *Another dish I will be adding them to... Then this morning, I made an egg frittata with the Lions Mane, and some baby Portobello's (Not from U-A) with some fresh Pico de Gallo mixed in. I made enough for breakfast and a snack, but I will have no snack today... I ate the entire thing! The rest, I have drying in the oven to use as a supplement to oatmeal, or cereal in the next few days. Thank you Court and Levi! You are stuck with me now! In the span of about a half hour, I feel like I made friends. What great people. Please Amador, join me in supporting their "First in Amador" Mushroom farm!

This is a great little farmer's market in downtown Volcano. Today's offerings were some huge…read moreorganic strawberries all the way from Watsonville the strawberry Capitol of the world, various varieties of citrus, vegetable plant starts, a nice lavender stand, local raw honey, beautiful flower arrangements, hand made chocolate candies, walnuts, artists, music, a local tamale lady with various hot sauces, coffee beans and another hot sauce stand. Baked in Amador was open for the farmer's market ( they're usually only open Thursday tru Saturday) with their awesome sourdough bread and pastries which sold out within 10 minutes! You could even get several different cocktails like a bloody Mary for 10.00 or a glass of wine. We look forward to going back to see if they expand and have other things available.

We stopped here to grab a quick bite as we headed over to CA. We weren't sure what to expect. I was…read morepleasantly surprised. The market was a good size inside, huge drink wise when you walk in to the left, lots of typical store aisles with a variety of foods to select from. They also had premade meals to grab and go. Their deli area was wonderful from sandwiches to pizzas there was a plethora of options. We went with the turkey club on Dutch crunch. Let me just say that was the freshest Dutch crunch bread I've had in a very long time. The sandwich was absolutely perfect. Clearly made with care and not just slapped together quickly to get it out. I was impressed. We even said it's a definite stop when we come through the area. Nice patio seating outside and it's got a gas station and car wash area onsite too. Worth checking out.

So happy to finally have this here! The phone number is 209 217-8102.

Dollar General is a low cost store that seems to locate mainly in rural areas. While there's…read morenothing horrible about this place, I'd much rather support someplace locally-owned with a much better selection of good like the Pine Grove Market across the street. I don't live in the area but I pass through every now and then. Each time I've been here the one register has had an epic line. You'll find almost anything you need, so think of it as a good grab and go spot, but the line may counter any convenience. They do have a decent amount of products in all categories, so think of it as a place to get what you usually would have to head down the hill for.

Poor... There…read moreshelves are always empty. They do not seem to be able to stock the core items. Cereal, Soups, etc. Too many stores to supply. Have plenty of seasonal items (not food) in stock. Only go when we need something and hope they have it in stock.

Also loved how when I had not been to the store for a couple of years, due to moving away, and we returned to the area, and I went to the store, a number of clerks who were so excited to see me and actually went out of their way, to say 'Hello Beth, so nice to see you'. Some people think Raley's is expensive but they are not if you follow their ads and sign up for their emails, which highlight weekly specials.

Pretty much the only frosting I will get whenever I order a cake there. The single slice cake, cheesecake, or pack of cupcakes are so ridiculously overpriced now though. Pretty sure they're not importing bakery items or ingredients, so I think it's ridiculous.
