There were things we liked about this fruit stand. It was notable that they carried many snack items (fresh nuts, many varieties of seasoned almonds, freeze-dried vegetables, dried fruits, etc). The bonus was, they had small jars to get samples of everything. We bought several as a result. Next, were their strawberries. Wonderful! Since it was May, I knew they were at their peak in sweetness. While everyone usually goes for the big plump ones, I found a half tray that had seconds, which I prefer. Seconds suffer in looks, but tend to be even more so sweet that the oversized ones, IMHO. These were a beautifully flavored variety and thoroughly enjoyed. We were on a honey hunt. There was a large variety of local honeys here. Loved that we could buy them in many different sized jars, including the cute honey bear squeeze bottles. They did not offer tasting, however. The two we picked were the blue sage and blackberry honeys. Both are great. Their Achilles Heel, sadly, were the baked goods. They looked good, but did not pass the taste test at all. We bought a pie and a couple turnovers. The strawberry rhubarb pie ended up tasting like cherry, and not even a good cherry pie. It had highly thickened filling, little sugar, and was lacking in any real fruit taste. This held true for the turnovers as well. Possibly some of the worst we have ever had. Sadly, everything ended up in the trash. Horrible. Stick with the produce and snacks. Nice quality and many choices.

They carry beautiful, locally grown produce, but they have so much more to offer. Our first great find here was their fresh and frozen fruit pies made by The Pie Company, a well-known, local business located in nearby Ripon. We are already big fans of this pie manufacturer because they supply their frozen pies to some of the larger Ace Hardware stores in our area, too. We live in So Cal, but we can pick up the exact same pies they make and sell here in Ripon/Manteca. We swear by them, especially the peach, apricot, and blackberry. They taste homemade and are piled full of naturally ripened fruit with very little sugar so the fresh fruit flavors shine through. While the crust is more thick than I usually prefer, I decided their crust is one of the better ones. Such a treat! Another find here was the wonderful array of flavored vinegars and honeys. The fig balsamic vinegar is amazing. So good, we returned the next day to bring a few more bottles home with us. There are several local brands to choose from. And then, check out the refrigerator section. If you see products from Long Ranch, this is a local pig ranch that has prize-worthy, thick cut, perfectly smoked bacon that has brought me to tears. Their bacon is heavenly. If I ever get a do-over, I would grab some of everything I see from this Ranch. Since we were on a road trip, we grabbed a few snacks. The sesame sticks, packaged under their own label, are so fresh and delicious. They have many other snack options that carry their label. Bet they are all really good. I am so impressed with the quality of the products they sell, I only wish I lived closer. I'd be a regular here.

Finished playing a softball tournament in Ripon and my teammates said there's a nearby fruit stand…read morethat sells great pies so I followed them down there. It's at the corner of Jack Tone Rd and 120 highway, pretty busy corner traffic wise. Lots of cars in the parking lot so good location! They have lots of probably locally grown fresh fruits and packages of nuts/kettlecorn/trail mix also! But back to what brought us here: fruit pies! And there's a ton of them in an assortment of fresh fruit flavors! I noticed apple, peach, strawberry rhubarb, blueberry, blackberry, boysenberry, mixed berries, apricot, cherry, and probably a few others but since I'm a berries lover I got the boysenberry. Here's where I have mixed feelings: the pies are visually well made using a hand formed buttery crust and lightly sprinkled sugar topping; give it a 4.5 out of 5. The boysenberry filling was very flavorful but too gooey imo, if the chefs cut back on the thickening agent it would be much better; 2.5 out of 5. The cooked outer crust could have been a bit darker/browner but it was cooked through. I would consider another try because I love fruit pies, maybe it was a mistake. And if the return trip for a boysenberry pie ended up being the same, the next one would be apple or something. As they say, YMMV

The stand was run by a single lady who was friendly and answered our questions about all the produce she had out. Lots of the usual - strawberries, apricots, walnuts and more. There were some unusual (at least for me) pieces for sale such as the persimmons. This stand was also significantly bigger than a lot of the others we passed which I assume is due to DePalma being a bit more established. I didn't get anything but I did sample a few pieces of fruit and all were very good and encouraged by the lady running the stand.
