I made some wonderful green salad from the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, carrots, snd broccoli. We also got some sweet corn that was really great. The workers provided helpful service.

We walked the strawberry field and picked our own baskets, then we shopped all the fruit inside. They even offer larger wicker baskets for holding your items. They were busy, but still attentive and efficient. . For all four of us, all of our totals were $30 or less. This will definitely be a regular produce spot now that I've found them! If you're tired of being gouged by grocery store prices, check out these local farmstands you will not be disappointed!

I have been a member of the Los Osos Valley Organic farm for many, many years - it was even another…read moreowner when I first joined. These vegetables and strawberries are just incredible. I had no idea that lettuce (Lettuce!) could have such a great taste and flavor. They produce unusual varieties from heirloom seeds and they are always trying new things. It is true that being a member of a CSA means you get to experience weather problems too - sometimes the bags are lighter at certain times of the year. But it is more than made up for by the ridiculously overstuffed bags at other times. Plus, I really appreciate how farmer Jim gets us things from other organic farms too: eggs, apples, cherries - any number of things might show up. I love the challenge of learning to cook with what's in season or when unexpected things arrive in our fancy silver bags. I just can not say enough good things about this business, and I am so happy to support organic farming in our beautiful area.

My wife won a Talley Box through work. Very easy to redeem. Called up, gave our gift certificate…read morenumber and then was told we were on the list. Our pickup was downtown Atown, Lemos. I was greeted and told to sign the clipboard and grab a box. Super Easy. When I arrived home I found mostly local, beautiful produce. Everything was in great shape! I had to have one of these huge strawberries and they were great! Intense Strawberry Flavor! Super juicy and super delicious. I had some of the broccoli and it also was great. Great fresh, snap, and deep broccoli taste. I saw online the box cost $52 and if you go to a store, you'll see that's a deal. Wonderful for families and even single people who don't have time. Great Product! *On a personal note, I wish they had it totally customizable. I personally don't want any GMO produce, none* *The Grover Beach Strawberries (in a package), Leeks, Snap Peas, Lettuce and Broccoli had no NonGmo and no organic Labeling*

I wanted to wait several deliveries before reviewing these fabulous peeps!! So For my health and my…read moresons health we have started eating much more healthy inherited high cholesterol is a bitch!!! So changing up my entire diet was something i had no choice over i'm 100% positive the keto diet I was on nearly killed me. Actually keto made my cholesterol rise by over 100 points!! It helped my stomach issues but screwed my health and my cholesterol up to a dangerously high level. So bad that i felt sick all the time I was on Keto for over 9 months. So i turned my diet around to be based on fresh veggies, fruits lean protein and whole grains with healthy fats and lower carb. This delivery program they have has helped make the change painless because of the exceptional quality and variety. Local grocers here where i live mostly sell crap! It looks good but tastes bad and expensive for the small quantities you get. And truthfully has been sitting in storage for quite some time. I came across Talley farms by accident i was looking for a better provider besides Imperfect foods. Their quality and prices are insane now and not worth what they are charging and a lot of their produce is imported from mexico and other countries a lot of the time which is a no no we live in the Ag hub of the country! So when i found Talley i loved that they only have local produce, Fresh picked, organic and in season! And i must say my god the difference in taste of farm fresh produce cannot be compared to store bought!! Even with something as simple as grapes right off the vine GASM!! Gorgeous fruits and veggies from this awesome group of farms!! They are the sweetest people!! They respond quickly to your emails and every delivery is correct! They send recipes and ideas for what your box will contain every week which i Love!! You can also replace things you don't want with other items or extra of something. You can also add additional in season fruits, veggies herbs etc from the available list in your email. I needed extra lettuces for my guinea pigs one week and she graciously replaced my cauliflower with tons of beautiful red little gem lettuces!!! I know most people don't get excited about produce but i'm telling you when i open my boxes from them i'm excited as hell Lol!! I am gushing about them because i truly believe they've got something great here and i'm so thankful i found out about them! We all need to clean our diets up to feel better and live longer and they help make it easier. I still have my luscious cheat meals occasionally but honestly the changes i've made has helped me feel so much better health wise and i know i'll be here longer for my sons ;) Talley farms Rocks!!!

All produce is organic, so sometimes there are quite a few little buggos to rinse off (fill a large salad bowl halfway to the brim and wash veggies in it, transferring them to a colander as you go. Then repeat. This is the best way to save water! A running tap is no good.) One head of broccoli was pretty full of aphids, and if I'm going to eat bugs I want it to be with informed consent! But a good wash solved that. Thanks, Blosser! You brighten my pandemic kitchen. Keep up the good work.

The farm stand was loaded with fresh, vibrant fruits, vegetables, and flowers. They even had artwork and olive oil for purchase. Everything was displayed in a magazine cover worthy style. But there was no prices noted which I found odd. I'm not wired to purchase items without knowing the price. I need to know before I loosen the purse strings.

I get the regular box with an add-on bag of mushrooms and every other week, a dozen eggs. There's kale almost weekly, which is the one veggie I don't really like, but it's still working for me. My neighbor, the vegan, loves kale and so every week, I redirect the kale to the vegan. In return, the vegan keeps gifting me wonderful things that she's growing, like passionfruit and celery. Yesterday, it was Santa Rosa plums! So, while I can't stand kale, it's still working for me to have it in the box!!! It's summer as I write and the SGO tomatoes have been spectacular. Tomatoes are my marooned-on-an-island food, and being from the south, I'm picky about my tomatoes. This week, there were 3 big yellow heirlooms in the box, which is perfect for my gerdy husband and his need for low-acid produce. In addition, there were about 25 medium to giant cherry tomatoes that were the sweetest, juiciest mouth-sized morsels ever. No salt needed. Hubby and I have been snacking on them straight outta the bowl for 2 days. Other notables in this week's organic box were beautiful broccoli, red leaf lettuce, onions, 3 gorgeous deep red peppers, 2 cukes, carrots, and a nice supply of sweet, juicy strawberries. I have to mention how wonderful it is to have unusual fresh mushrooms each week. I used to buy portobellos weekly, but now I'm using shitakes, maitakes, oysters, lion's mane, and other cool varieties in our soup. And come spring, I can't wait for a weekly stash of chanterelles to arrive again! It's also super easy to manage the SGO orders online. I've been out of town a few times since subscribing and it has been super easiy to login and stop my order for a week. And if you can't figure it out, it's easy to email Carolyn, who is incredibly responsivle and makes communication a breeze. Another thing I love about this service is that Carolyn writes a weekly blog about how things are going/growing at the Givens Farm. It was interesting, for example, to read about how the rains this year affected the strawberries and other produce. In the blog, she lists what each week's box will include, so you can be thinking ahead about what you're going to do with a spaghetti squash, leeks, fennel, or yams. Carolyn typically throws in a recipe with each blog for something in the box. I hope to be able to subscribe to SGO for a long time. Hubby and I are surely enjoying their combination of delicious organic produce and world-class service each week.
