You'll need to hunt to find really good looking large fruit. They sell bulk fruit as well. 3/5: Apple turnover. It's OK. It needs to be heated up. 3/5: Apple ice cream sandwich: It's actually cinnamon-apple. One the sweet side.

It's a family run operation with multi-generations welcoming guests to their beautiful property.

We love Clearview and have made it a family tradition to visit each year.

Buy local this is one of the healthier markets in the area and need to support a local establishments before they are swallowed up by the giant cooperations. Selection, selection....SELECTION! I would like to give a shout out to Nadia. I couldn't find my favorite peanut sauce, and she helped me find it, since it's the only place that carries organic gluten with without the high sodium intake. I season it with my lean ground beef. Customer service; there's always someone lingering near to help you with whatever you need. Store is hardly ever busy so I've never had to wait very long. Also a shout out to Carla that cashier that rang me up, thank you for the hospitality and I look forward to me next visit.

No, this is mainly for the street foodie enthusiast, for those into the quickest possible route to $4 slabs of masa packed with an earthy rich mole, chicken, and oaxacan cheese, steaming styrofoam cups of champurado, fresh crispy churros that my fiancee intuitively, aggressively chomps like a pittbull eating strips of bacon, that sort of thing. You come here to binge out on huaraches, sopes, and down horchata like you have no other task in life. You get stuffed here and post up in the old school Ville, only leaving after feeling immensely satisfied, and less impoverished than if you went to a sit-down place pretty much anywhere. I can't help but feeling a couple of these little ladies slanging tamales and empanadas have to be some of the best cooks in Santa Cruz county. More than 4 gringoes max last week sighted in the crowd last time we were there. Bound to blow up. Damn it, another of my favorites out in the interest of the yelper nation.

The good: This place is just all-so American and I love it…read more My aunt comes here for the berry pie and buys several of them to bring to me in SoCal. She's a frequent customer and she seldom eats pies. She sometimes freezes them. It's packed with so many berries and has a pure berry taste. It's sweet but still maintains the tartness/acidity of the berries so it helps your ability to eat more of it. My husband finished almost an entire pie in one day. The bad: My aunt said the apple pie is too sweet and therefore prefers the more tart/sour berry pie. I wish I tried the pie with ice cream because that would have been a nice compliment. The interesting: They're family owned and have been around for decades. You can pick fruits here too.

Stopped by 10/4/2026 and it was the last day of the season for apple picking. There weren't too…read moremany apples left but we still managed to pick a handful. Very affordable prices. We also got slices of apple pie a la mode at the pie shop. Unfortunately they were out of the Dutch apple pie but the regular apple pie was still quite delicious. It was warm, fresh, and had a flaky crust. The vanilla ice cream was icy though and felt like it had freezer burn. The line at the pie shop moved quite slowly and got pretty long. Great vibes here and you get a pretty inclusive experience with fruit picking, a souvenir shop, the pie shop / deli, and a small pumpkin patch.

Website doesn't…read moremention it, only an email we didn't read until on the way to site did, so I didn't have right clothes or repellent. Ended up with three ticks and one tick bite. Site doesn't offer any bug spray, but maybe should? As far as Covid safety, only thing is a reservation system which limits attendees. About 8-9 rows so plenty of space to spread out, but it's self regulated. Some parents corral their Children and others don't so you're at mercy of others, or have to speak up. We also got chased down rows by an oblivious sneezing and coughing man who prob had allergies and wore a mask... No one from farm is monitoring people once in. No questions or temp checks for admittance, though email prob asks that you mind it. Also: expensive! Expect to pay about $20-25/gallon baggie, which holds about 3-4 pounds. Blueberries are delish. Ticks are not so be prepared.

When Two Small Farms reorganized, I stuck with my usual pickup spot, which went to High Ground Organics. I was a little nervous.

The produce is as high quality and varied as I could have hoped.
