Lunita Farm delivers fresh fruits and vegetables weekly as a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)…read moreand also sells produce at the Sunday farmers' market in Glen Ellen. I started receiving a weekly share from Lunita Farm last summer and I've never tasted better carrots. Throughout the season, I also got really tasty tomatoes, eggplants, padrone peppers, figs, melons, and beets, to name a few. In the winter, we get every kind of leafy green imaginable, as well as a turnips, winter squash, and storage onions. This spring has so far yielded a beautiful crop of fava beans (a new favorite of mine) and some amazing strawberries. Yum! Each share is packed with a wonderful variety of delicious veggies (some familiar, some new) and a news letter with updates from the farm, a recipe, and instructions on how to prepare some of the less common produce. Everything is grown organically here in Sonoma, although the farm is not certified organic. As I've said, this is some of the best produce I've ever tasted, and it's obvious that the vegetables are tended to with care. Plus, it's a wonderful challenge to cook with whatever is in the share each week, and it's fun to see the contents of the share (and my menus) change with the seasons. I can't recommend Lunita Farm highly enough.

We have had the meat thaw several times now and therefore can't refreeze it. They drop it off at 2 am without any ice packs or dry ice to keep it frozen. There is no customer support email on their website, at least that I could find. No next steps if you have an issue with the order. I would steer clear until they figure out how to deliver and keep the meat frozen.

This was the day we got them! We've waited almost a week for a response after emailing to ask if this was a one off. They were very responsive when I was ordering things. :( They say they pick produce at its ripest but I don't think this means as it is about to turn. The delivery set up is different each week. Sometimes a swap box, sometimes not, sometimes it's awkward to get your stuff, sometimes it's so easy! I won't continue when my subscription is up.

The only drawback is you can't select the box contents, but I look as it as a challenge to eat something new.

We cancelled our subscription after week one - but have 3 more boxes to pick up since you must pre-order a month at a time. I'm rating it a 2 instead of a 1 because I very much like the CSA model, in theory. We have subscribed to other CSAs in the past and found the quality to be higher. We tried this one because the pick up location was within walking distance of our home. I am reading the five star reviews and wondering how our first impression can be so completely different.

After trying other CSAs in the area I came across Riverdog Farm from a newsletter sent out by my…read morefavorite pork butcher, Fatted Calf. $20 a week for organic produce, why not give it a shot. So I paid for a month in advance (you pay by check either by the month or the quarter) and waited for my first pick up. Fortunately there are a few options for picking up your box in Napa (check their website to see if there's one nearby you) including one only a mile away from our home. Yeah! The pickup location, at least in my area, is in someone's carport which is fairly typical of CSAs, thank goodness for volunteers. Just verify your pick up by signing the clipboard by your name, grab your box or unload it into your own bags (if you take the box return it in your next visit) then prepare to be wowed by the amazing produce. Each week is a little but different and changes along with the season. What's always in the box is the most beautiful organic produce I've ever seen. This weeks box had a bunch of gorgeous rainbow chard which was sautéed along with Fatted Calf sweet sausage served on top of Model bread with poached eggs. Best chard ever! I've posted a few pics of the last few boxes, judge for yourself, Riverdog Farm is amazing. It doesn't get any better than this. PS... They also raise organic fed hogs and chickens. Picked up my first pork share (delivered along with my regular box pick up) and the cuts look so tasty. Can not wait to braise the fresh hocks. Check their website for a complete list of pork share offerings.

I was pretty confident that I'd written about Riverdog in the past and was somewhat shocked to see that I praised only their eggs in my short initial review. Yes, the eggs are great, and everyone knows it. But I can make a long, long list of Riverdog products that consider to be top notch: green garlic, raw chickens, pork chops, carrots, daikons, asparagus tips, onions, black radishes, little gems when they're available, .... At the moment, their early girl and heirloom tomatoes are truly excellent. In recent weeks, I've gotten their squash and green beans -- excellent again, of course. Riverdog prices are not outrageous, in view of the high quality. Their wares merit a detour. The farmers (Trini and Tim) and their employees (shout out here for Becky) are all super-nice. Check them out!

We pulled in through the gates and saw a small field of flowers to the left, along with a shed-like structure and a house in the back. The right side was pretty empty; I'm guessing whatever was growing there had already been harvested. We stood around for a few mins pretty confused about how it all worked. We found a sign saying that CSA members get to cut for free and a pricing chart for non-members. There were clippers and a knife sitting next to a stack of boxes, so we grabbed one of each and headed for the garden. The selection wasn't quite what we expected, but we still got a great bunch of flowers and sunflowers. Some were a little difficult to access from the walkways, so we just tried to be as careful as possible. When we were done, we tried to pay, but there wasn't really a designated place to leave money, so we just stuck it under a box inside the shed area (I hope they got it!). Very cute place! A little confusing for first-timers, but overall a nice experience.

So for $15 we got a watermelon, a galia melon, a bunch of basil, 4 bell peppers, several zucchini, 2 huge cucumbers, 2 Japanese eggplants, 4 PINTS of tomatoes in 3 different varieties, 2 sandwich bags full of 2 different varieties of hot peppers, a butternut squash, a huge spaghetti squash, and a pattypan squash. They haven't used any chemicals for four years (so basically organic without the certification) and they use drinking quality well water on all the produce. I'm so happy I stumbled upon this place while searching online for a CSA deal. I highly recommend giving them a try.

I got my first box last week and it was huge, definitely the best value I've seen. Plus they don't use any pesticides or fertilizer, which is higher standard than organic.

I'll definitely visit them often at Sunday's farmer's market or get a CSA box from them. Highly recommended!
