Well, it's always easy for me to find this farm's bounty in going to the Ferry Farmers' market on Tuesdays and Saturdays. They started participating in the market about two years ago and, at first, I mainly only bought strawberries (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=JO1Cnr4pkcFCVEEfFkGKYA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q) from them. Over the past eighteen months, I've become an avid fan of their vegetables especially their cauliflower (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=gC_FKh5f_f7M2Gj7ZbUB4A&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q), cabbage, broccoli, and broccolini. I generally cook them within the week to preserve their freshness in flavors and textures, after all they are organic. And, when tomatoes are back in season, check whether they offer their self made salsas. They have become one of my weekly and sometimes twice weekly shopping stops at the Ferry Building. Do look for their stand by the main building entrance on the north side on Tuesdays and along the south driveway at Saturdays.

Once we found Green Thumb Organics we never looked back and have been with them for years. They have provided us with a yummy, healthy, beautiful, environmentally friendly bounty of food over the past few years and we have loved all of the spectacular fare that their hard work has prepared. Maria and Rudy are the kindest most hardworking and thoughtful people you will ever encounter. Their adversity and hard work is impressive having helped them adapt and persevere through some extremely difficult situations including the COVID shutdown and the recent floods. Rudy, himself, not only works the farm, but every week drives hundreds of miles and delivers his hard work with a beautiful, heartfelt smile on his face - always. Maria answers every email and addresses every question or ordering platform navigation challenges that one may run into. Their homemade salsa and marinara are scrumptiously spectacular! I literally buy 5 jars of salsa at a time every couple of weeks. Their prices are very low for what you receive. This is the last CSA you will ever need. Stop shopping and sign up with them. You'll feel better supporting a local, small business while being economical and environmental, helping you and/or your family's physical and mental health.

Had heard about this place from a friend who gave the carnitas a 10/10 review. My pup and I had…read morebeen wanting to try the carnitas nachos. Nice ambiance and the staff was friendly (although, the server had a shirt that said NOPE so didn't know what to expect) but they didn't take my drink order. Had to get my own Bubly water from the staff fridge. When the food arrived I couldn't help but notice the bus staff staring at my table in anticipation of something, it was a bit awkward but I brushed it off and began my meal. I was pleasantly surprised to find pickled red onions and an ample amount of crema piled on top of the partially melted cheese. The carnitas tasted fresh and well seasoned, but you could tell it had been reheated for lunch service. My pup loved the crunchy chips and carnitas. Over all, pleasant experience but I am giving them 4 stars because the service staff disappeared after dropping food so I had to clear my own plate and wash my coffee mugs. I will be recommending to friends.

From the juicy red strawberries to the bright yellow lemons and everything in between, Coke Farm is the real deal, the best in quality deal and the best tasting deal in organic produce. Take Coke Farm strawberries, for instance. A 1 pound container holds the rubiest red berry, the deepest green stems. The strawberries are at least the size of a golf ball and the taste of heaven and juciness is in every single bite. It never hurts to have asthetically pleasing fruits and vege's and that's what Coke Farm does so well. The only inedible part of a Cook Farm strawberry is the stem. Their package label is red, green & white. Just like the anticipation of Christmas Eve, Coke Farm produce is a delight to see. Door-to-Door Organics in Chicago, delivers a lot of Coke Farm goodness, as those wonderful strawberries arrived this week!

I was also looking at the red walnuts which I have never seen before and she gave me a sample of that also. The employees were super friendly. I got dried dipped apricots, regular dried apricots and the red walnuts. LOVE Blenheim apricots. Will definitely be back.

The green miracle…read moreworkers at Happy Boy Farms are tremendously good at what they do, which is to turn out year-round, organic and ultra-fresh vegetables, herbs, and leafy yumminess from their farms in Watsonville and the Gilroy and Soquel areas. Their mesclun and lettuce mixes ($5/lb bag or loose) are really exceptional and typically last all week long. The tomato and melon offerings in the summer are great, and the autumn stuff, like squash, radishes, kale, chard, etc. are also go-to picks for us. The fresh herbs are lovely and cost around $1.25 for a decently-sized bunch. We also get their fennel to slice it razor-thin in our mandolin or toss it in vegetable soups spiked with brown miso paste. Great stuff! The Happy Boy crew also won the San Mateo Halloween costume contest this year, which was a lot of fun. Saturday mornings at the College of San Mateo parking lot is the hottest ticket in town!

SALTY NUTS & SAUSAGE are my two favorite things in the world! I know I'm sick and I need help.) Oh they are located directly across from the Bratwurst Truck yeah baby... So my roommate Elliot (real dark red head) is a super regular their on Tuesdays and he always leaves some trail mix stuff out. Now I'm not "crunchy" or hippy dippy and normally don't dig on what some people would call birdfood although I know it is packed with nutrients etc... and I tried and it and I have to be honest. This particular mix doesn't look specail at all, not a fancy assortment or a wild range of colorful edible goodies, just a nice blend of basics and then some and what a great baggie fille with wonderful flavors. The one I'm talking about is called the "Deluxe Trail Mix". Then I've been on this kick and get dried sliced Mangos from Trader Joe's and I tried theirs and they are up there my friends... "Natural Mangos" (new crop from our Neighbors - Mexico) are just slightly sweet and uber tasty. Like paradise in your boca guey. Ok and the last thing I tried and of course got were the "Chocolate Covered Blenheim Apricots". Ummm kickass and killer! I've been meaning to up my intake of fruits! It worked out! All this (4 bags in total - I got 2 Deluxe Trail Mix) for only $10!!! No wonder why my roomie goes there almost every week. Don't miss this fun and luscious fruit and nut stand. Forget your Frutas from da Casa... It's all about the Apricot Farm.

I should add that its especially good if you don't happen to work, and you can show up in the afternoon and browse. Commuters might find 7pm on a Wednesday a hard target to meet. Anyway, I love the organic heirloom tomatoes and fresh peaches. You also get your fair share of characters (go talk to the guy with all the herbs and lettuce). The price is always right, and you just feel good about yourself buying fresh and buying local. Other towns may have bigger and better markets, but this is Hollister, and I think the selection and size is pretty good. I just miss the honey sticks. Bring back the honey sticks!
