Pick up weekly bushel box of our fresh, in-season, certified organic produce from Buttonwillow, CA in a beautiful variety. We offer primarily vegetables but are known for our melons during the summer. We participate in over 8 farmer's markets and have over 25 CSA pick up locations throughout Los Angeles and Kern Counties. Our vision is to create a model of farming and distribution that both supports the farmer and provides quality produce to all communities regardless of location or income.
