I don't have a photo to post but just a screenshot from their FB page…read more I couldn't believe the price the first time I came across their page, which was 6$ for 15 dozen I missed out on that deal but came when I had my cousin to help me carry the eggs. We went during the summer the day before the Fourth of July around 9am which was a Friday. It wasn't busy but a few cars there. The regular price is $10 for 15 dozen, still a great amazing deal. Fast friendly service, at their window pick up. This week of August 11th they had an $8 deal for the 15 dozen We came on Thursday the 13th and got that 8$ deal!! We mentioned them to family and friends. My cousin's family from her husbands side has a lot of kids and went by in the afternoon and said there was a long line and a lot of people My Thursday morning around 10a wasn't busy, even with the deal, so I guess their afternoons are a lot more busy FYI I hope they will still have these amazing prices for months to come which definitely helps big families. The place is clean and beautiful They have a sign saying to watch out for chickens crossing the road. Please do!! I also wish I can give them 15 dozen stars

AWARENESS: Because of the heat in the valley, my chickens…read morehave slowed their laying so, I needed to grab a few eggs to tie my family over for a few days. NARRATIVE: I drove to Pleasant Valley Farms on a Sunday morning, just after they opened for day. There were a few cars and waiting people when arrived but, the line to grab some fresh eggs moved quickly. I grabbed 18 large brown eggs and paid $5 dollars. No fuss. No muss, just some fresh eggs. SCENE: Pleasant Valley Farms is located in the unincorporated city of Ripon on W Ripon Road between Austin Road and S Curtis Avenue. The farm has signs clearly marking which way to enter and leave the property and the process for getting eggs is simple; drive up. Find a place to park. Head to the window and buy your eggs. RECOMMENDATION(S): You can't beat the freshness of their eggs nor their price. Highly recommended.

This was our first time visiting the farm during the harvest season. We didn't get to do everything…read more(newborn & toddler needing a nap) but there was sooo much to do. Farmer John's really spent time and resources making upgrades to everyone's experience when they visit. One of the most noticeable improvements was the concrete paths that have been poured, circling the attractions. This makes the farm completely stroller friendly and so much easier for moms with young kids. My daughter also got to do the pony ride which was such a special treat for her. I should also note that it was only $15 to get in. We went to another pumpkin patch here in the valley that charged just as much, but had way less attractions, amenities and things to do. Thank you farmer John for always making our experiences better and better, and keeping it affordable for us moms!

There's plenty of parking there. We arrived around 8:15am, and we were abit disappointment in the trees as most of the blossoms have fallen off. We walked further down into the farm, and then we found some of the trees still have some blossoms. It looked like snow covered because of the fallen flower petals. We had a lovely time taking pictures and little videos. Because of the time restraint, we didn't visit the farm stand. I would definitely visit the next time I go. It's free to visit. I definitely recommend going to the Secret Garden afterwards for a lovely brunch/lunch/or dinner. That's what we did. :) Also, I think it would have been better to go visit in mid/late February because the trees would have more of the blossoms.

One of the very few farms that lets you walk among the almond trees. It is gorgeous and the blooms might last another coupla weeks. The recent rains created a nice white carpet with the blossoms on the green land. Some great produce in the farmstand as well.
