I was driving down Highway 70 through the town of Marysville. For folks familiar with the area, it's rural farmland and orchards with a bunch of little roadside farm stands. The landscape is nondescript and is very similar looking as you drive past multiple orchards. But Sodaro Orchards little hand crafted roadside signs stood out from all the rest, those caught my eye.
I made that u turn back to check them out. I turned off the main road and drove down a small gravel road. Just follow the additional handcrafted artsy signs. On the right is the fruit stand. You can't miss it. It's not far at all from the main road.
In season now are plums, Plouts, peaches (o Henry and white varieties), nectarines... stone fruit! Also they had tomatoes, corn, yellow onions, Bartlett pears, local honey... I'm sure I'm missing something. Everything looked fresh but to me the superstar was the peaches. I bought a bunch of O Henry peaches. A whole flat is $25. The peaches were a good ole healthy size. Gorgeous color and texture. They had copies of their family peach cobbler recipe. I made one that night. I followed the recipe and it turned out gorgeously picture perfect gorgeousand delightfully delectable. Bubbly peach syrupy goodness. Plus the peaches were also darn good just eating them as is.
The fella manning the stand was awesome. Great outgoing upbeat personality.
