Perhaps it may have been an off day, when I visited previously she seemed nice then.

Vendors are lined up on both sides creating a long straight walk with some of the area under a covered pavilion. There was a lot to see--produce, nuts, honey, meats, cheese, chocolates, baked goods, flowers, plants, arts & crafts, & more. Organizations also had booths set up on the end opposite the pavilion. Street performers added musical entertainment. It's a neat stroll & a lot of people were out browsing & purchasing. The park offers a nice setting to enjoy any eats you purchase & there are restroom facilities. Note--Signage states no animals are allowed where food is sold (except for service animals).

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Mabel's! I stumbled upon…read morethis charming shop last summer while grabbing stuff at the farmers market. My family and I decided to walk around and as we were about to cross the street, out of the corner of my eye I spotted an intriguing window display...of tinned fish! Be still my bougie heart and the cookbooks, totes, art prints, artisanal and local cheeses, breads and spreads! They had just moved from a smaller location and this little house front made it all the more charming. My husband laughed and said it was like Mabel's had manifested itself knowing I would be there that day. The owner (Shelley I believe) was so warm and welcoming. She was sweet to my toddler and clearly had experience as a mother/aunt/grandmother to someone because she charmed my daughter who is usually very shy. I walked away with a gorgeous tinned fish print of one of my favorite local artists, and a tote full of tinned fish from brands I enjoy and others I had not tried before. The selection is vast and really offers so much for both experienced and new converts to tinned fish. Mabel's is THE place to come to for your picnicking needs. Grab a blanket and make your way here to grab stuff. Small sized spreads make it easy, and all you need is some bread or crackers, fresh fruit and salami, chocolate and tinned fish of course! The wonderful people who work here make Mabels Market. Because you feel like you have a friend who is looking out for you; to ensure you have the best experience. So support this lovely business because we all need a little tinned fish.

I tried the creme de menthe, which was excellent - I'm a big fan of mint. The dude behind the counter, Sammy, was super friendly, humble, and genuinely seemed like a nice guy. I'd definitely come back here again for some chocolate from Sunny. If you're in the area, stop by. There's coffee nearby too, so if you like your coffee and chocolates, go for it!

When I was a subscriber I truly felt like I was connected with the farmers, not just a business but families. I loved the variety and miss the dried fruits, eggs and meat options that I could add to my order. Yes sometimes you end up getting carrots and leafy greens every week, that's because it's carrot and leafy green season. Be it too little or too much rain, pests or other reasons - you're connected and see first hand how everything affects and interacts with the food the farmers labor over. The supermarket has spoiled us, variety all the time is not natural, we have seasons but we ignore this and ship what we want when we want. On a positive spin, we now have tons of carrot recipes. We received a peck each week and visited our local farmers market to supplement. our order. It's easy once it becomes routine. And check out the area's Hoe's Down Festival each October at one of the participating farms (Full Belly). Here you'll get an opportunity to meet the people that make it all happen, tour the farm and see where it all comes from.

I was super-bummed when the Capay Valley Farm Shop in Vacaville shut down several years ago, but…read moresince its closure I've been on their mailing list and that's how I heard about the Farm Shop's Farmshares/CSA program. I've been participating in the CSA since last winter and I'm a huge fan! However, an important distinction I need to begin this review with is that this CSA is NOT the same program as the "Farm Fresh to You" CSA run by Capay Organic, which a lot of Yelpers have already reviewed. I prefer the Farm Shop's CSA over the FFTY program for quite a few reasons, but here are the key differences you need to know about the two when looking for the right CSA for you and your food habits: FFTY delivers directly to your home or office, whereas the Farm Shop CSA program requires that you pick up your produce from a local drop-off point. You do end up paying for the convenience of this direct delivery: FFTY charges $31.50 for a "Regular" size box of nine different fruits and vegetables, whereas the Farm Shop CSA charges $27 for their "Bushel," which has eleven items. Portion-wise there isn't much difference, and my drop-off point is only a couple minutes drive from where I work so having home delivery isn't important to me. FFTY has more "size" options for their deliveries; the Farm Shop has just two choices: the smaller "Peck" ($18 for seven items) and the aforementioned Bushel. FFTY, as far as I can tell, sources its produce from just one farm (Capay Organic). The Farm Shop CSA program on the other hand sources its produce (plus optional add-on goodies like olive oil, nuts, dried fruit, etc.) from a pretty awesome collaborative of Capay Valley farms, including Durst, Full Belly, Good Humus, and Riverdog. FFTY allows you to customize your orders so that you can have more fruit than veggies in your CSA delivery, or more veggies, or all fruit/all veggies. With the Capay CSA program on the other hand, what you get is what you get. There is no customizing or picking and choosing your produce. It is a TRUE CSA where you take what you are given based on the season, the vagaries of the local weather, and availability. Perhaps because it is based on a collaborative of many farms, the Farm Shop CSA program has a spectular feature that FFTY does not have: it allows you to add on other goodies besides produce to your CSA deliveries. As a mostly-vegan I'm not interested in the pasture-raised eggs or Riverdog Farms' naturally raised chicken and pork, but I looooove Taber Ranch's olive oil, the dried fruit from Good Humus, and the raw nuts and dried onions from Full Belly. If you're interested in trying out a CSA, definitely give the Capay Valley Farm Shop's program a try! You can check their website to see if there is a drop-off point near you; if there is, it's pretty easy to get started. Probably the hardest part of this CSA for most people will be the "what you get is what you get" nature of each delivery, but that's what a CSA should be all about, to be quite honest. I actually like that aspect of the program: it did get hard in the winter to deal with chard, chard, chard and more chard, but being forced to try new fruits and vegetables has helped me broaden my palate even further as well as sharpen my cooking skills and expand my repertoire.Thanks to this CSA I've learned that I love celeriac grated and fried in a skillet like hash browns, that there is nothing better in summer than a just-picked boysenberry, and that I can cook delicata squash for lunch in the toaster oven at work. I have the "Bushel" delivered to me every other week. For one person it works out well: I usually go into a frenzy of cooking the first two days after getting my delivery but my time investment in the kitchen for the rest of the fortnight is pretty normal. By the time the next delivery rolls around I've finished nearly everything from the previous delivery, perhaps save for some of the harder root vegetables. I did consider doing the smaller "Peck" on a weekly basis but I prefer the greater variety of the Bushel. My last Bushel consisted of the following: Roma Tomatoes, Slicer Tomatoes (Durst Organic Growers); Chioggia Beets, Padron/Shishito Peppers, Yellow Crookneck Squash (Full Belly Farm); Suncrest Peaches (Good Humus Produce); and French Fingerling Potatoes, Green Curly Kale, Green Slicing Cucumbers, Red Torpedo Onion, Savoy Cabbage (Riverdog Farm). Most of the Roma tomatoes, cukes, and onion went into making a really good panzanella; the slicer tomatoes went into sandwiches; the beets were roasted off in the oven and plopped onto salads; and the peaches got eaten as soon as I got the box home and gave them a quick wash. I still have a week left before my next delivery and all I have left to make use of are three of the torpedo onions, half the kale and cabbage, and the potatoes. Wow, I actually almost ran out of review space! I'll end this by saying thanks, Farm Shop! Can't wait for my next CSA box!
