Is this the one with the green canopy and green sign? Green canopy & green sign - 2 stars. Blue canopy, white sign - 5 signs Today I discovered there are different "Rodriguez Farms." Yesterday I went to the CSM Farmers Market in San Mateo. Green canopy and green banner sign. I thought it was odd they didn't have the usual "Albion" strawberries I buy since they're sweeter than the non-Albion. I asked the guy and he insisted they were Albion even though the signage did not state this. 3 baskets/$18. I asked him if they're the same as the San Carlos vendor and he said they were. He was misleading if not an outright liar. Today I went to the San Carlos Farmers Market. BLUE Canopy and not a green sign. The guy there told me there are at least two different "Rodriguez Farms." The one in San Carlos has Albion for 3 baskets/$20 and is sweeter than the regular. TLDR: get them at the San Carlos Farmers Market on Sundays. Don't get them at the CSM Farmers Market on Saturdays. read more

At Newark Farmer's Market, I have recently seen two farms that sell strawberries - Rodriguez and Fenella Berries. As of now, I prefer the latter farm and have a review for them. ORDER Biggest box of strawberries - $20 STARS (stand out qualities) -Food (5/5 stars) - red and delicious strawberries -Service (3/5 stars) - one staff gave me a sour face when I asked to pick another box because I saw some bruised strawberries -Ambiance (4/5 stars) - quick service STAIRS (areas of growth) -Feels a bit too salesy but I understand they need to make a living! TIPS -Fot the big box, rhetorical offered me $20 even though it is advertised as $25 -They offer plastic bag but farmers market has station to give one or get one reusable bag read more

Rodriguez Farms - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Castroville, California

Rodriguez Farms used to be our go to spot at the farmers market but the owner's attitude changed that completely. We had been loyal customers for years. We almost solely buy organic in our household, and know that organic produce usually has a shorter shelf life. However, when we brought our strawberries home they were completely molded within 18 hours. As we are both microbiologists (w/ my fiancee specifically being a food microbiologist), we take the utmost precautions and steps to try to best preserve the quality of our produce. Seeing as this was our regular spot, my fiancee emailed them to tell them about the situation. The owner advised us to not buy from them again and insinuated we stored them incorrectly. He also mansplained what organic means as if I do not come from a family of farmers. Honestly, super disappointed with this farm and how they conduct business. We would've been more than happy to continue being a loyal customer if the owner wasn't so condescending and rude. read more

Rodriguez Farms is the only strawberries stall I look for at any of my neighborhood farmers market. You can smell their fragrance fill the kitchen when you buy a box home. Highly recommend!!! read more

Went to the Campbell farmers market on Nov 18 2018 and they were selling a whole box of strawberries for $15. They looked delicious and plump at first glance. When we took them home and further examined under the first layer of strawberries... they were tiny and mediocre tasting. Felt like they weren't running an honest business. read more

Great tasting Strawberries. Can't wait for the season to begin. Very sweet berries and plump.

Bought strawberries at Bayfair Farmer's Market for $4 for a small box. Like other reviews, the top layer was good, but bottom ones were moldy. The top layer also wasn't very sweet. Never buying strawberries from them again. read more

I have been going to the Castro valley farmers market for. Couple of weeks. And we have bought strawberries just about every week from Rodrigues. But this last week they were just awful. The top layer looked good but just a tiny squeeze and they moosh. The bottom of one of the baskets was molded. I was able to salvage about half of the half flat that was purchased. Very disappointed. read more

Love when I see them at the Farmers Market in Old Oakland on Fridays. They have the absolute best strawberries I've ever had. They currently sell them as follows: 1 pint basket - $4 Strip of 3 pint baskets - $10 Half Case (6 pint baskets) -$18. Nothing much else to say, great strawberries! read more

The strawberries from Rodriguez farmers are always radiant and bursting with sweetness. Unfortunately their raspberries as of late have been tiny, lacking sweetness and just not very edible. I bought a basket today and ended up having to throw away most of them. They were very tart. Most of them were covered in dust, mold, and overall - not the picture of healthy fruit. I know it's not necessarily their fault - since farm/weather conditions are out of their control - but I feel like next time it may be best to just bring their fruit that truly bears testimony to the time and passion that they put into their farm and produce - rather than lack-luster almost un-edible berries. Trust. read more

They go to the Old Oakland Farmer's Market and Hayward's Farmer's Market and always have freshly picked and plump straweberries...nothing beats the freshness and sweetness of these berries...I will never buy them from a grocery store again. 3 baskets for $7 or 3 organic ones for $10 read more

WOW WHAT A RIP OFF!!!! $5 for 4 Persian cucumbers, the organic farm 2 stalls down $1.50 less per lb. for the same thing. BE WARY !!!!! OR JUST SHOP WISE I will no longer shop there..................... read more

Im shocked reviewers arent giving Rodriguez higher remarks. Rodriguez strawberries are the best! I look forward getting their strawberries weekly at the farmers market and everyone working has been pleasant and cheerful. It is the beginning of February, Rodriguez returned to the farmers market, and the strawberries tasted so good despite not being peak season. I've gone to other strawberry vendors at various other farmers market and the service and quality of the strawberries are not as good. Some are bad enough where they place their best strawberries on top and the majority of the strawberries are going bad or taste bad. Seriously. I also like how Rodriguez only sells strawberries which indicates to me their focus and attention are strawberries strawberries strawberries. Other strawberry vendors/farms sell raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. read more

We have been buying strawberries, blueberries and raspberries from Rodriguez Farms at Bay Fair and have been very delicious....sweet like candy. We look to every Saturday just to get the best berries!! read more

They have the best strawberries at the Concord Farmer's Market. I signed on to check if their stand would be at the market today. We're looking forward to the new harvest. From what I'm reading, they expect to be back soon, weather permitting. read more

This review is for Rodriguez strawberry vendor. I've been buying boxes of strawberries from them and the disappointment is getting bigger every time. Their crates of strawberries look so good until we remove the first layers, all the small/ smushy/ moldy strawberries are hidden underneath. What an unethical business. I wouldn't complain if they are sour or tasteless, this is ethics matter. I've been supporting them, sent them a complaint Awhile ago and they blamed it on the weather getting foggy which made the strawberries moldy more quickly. Well, I understand growing and selling produce is not easy, but don't hide the bad ones underneath please. If your strawberries are not fresh, don't sell them. I get really frustrated when dealing with moldy food. It's a very serious health related issue. I will never buy from them again. This is the amount i threw away from the crate i bought yesterday and kept in the fridge. Some of them are not moldy but super mushy read more

Not sure about these one-time buyer negative reviews. I just brought back half a flat to my family and had each family member reach out to exclaim about the amazing flavor especially this late into the year. My sister in law thought they were imported from somewhere in the other hemisphere. Consistent, quality, organic and delicious. I usually pick them up at Alemany Farmer's Market in SF and they are a good deal at any price, head and shoulders above supermarket strawberries. read more

Best most delicious Organic Strawberries I have had in a long time !! And a very generous amount !! Alejandro told me they do all the farming themselves which makes me very excited as some vendors simply pick up from other farmers to sell .. but its good to know your farmers personally !! I'm so happy they are now in Las Vegas at Fresh 52 Farmer's Market !! Will be visiting them every sunday from now on !! read more

Just picked up a bunch of strawberries, blackberries and blueberries from a farmers market in Reno NV and oh my goodness they are the best berries we've ever had! Will definitely be a repeat customer! read more

Bought some fresh, ripe berries from them today at the Alameda Farmers Market. 3 cartons/$10 for delicious organic strawberries! Strawberry pie, ice cream and shortcake, here I come. read more

Best strawberries I've ever tasted Marina California farmers market Rodriguez farms strawberries are the best

"Which one you like my friend...$5 for you amigo..." That's likely what you'll hear after they get used to seeing you every week. Absolutely the best strawberries at Serramonte Farmer's Market. Red all the way to the tops. I gorge myself on their strawberries all summer, sometimes forgetting to remove the leaves. Usually my last stop because its impossible to shop with a flat of strawberries in one arm, and you do not want to leave this precious cargo in your car with the windows rolled up. Only a few more weeks and its back to frozen blueberries for my Kashi every morning. read more

Idk what that one star was for probally a fake review from competitors, because these are always fresh. Best organic strawberries I ever ate. The main reason I go to concord farmers market is for these strawberries. Great price, the recently gave me a deal 6 boxes for 10$. Very Juicy, red, and big. The lady is hella nice and saves a box for me , packs it and even brings it. read more

We bought strawberries at the farmer's market at West Valley CC. Top layer looked great. Unfortunately we found the bottom ones to be over ripe and moldy once we were home. Won't be buying strawberries from Rodriguez farm again. read more

I swore I would never buy from them again but sadly I did. Just had my third bad experience with this vendor. Purchased strawberries from them at the Belmont Farmers Market on 7/20/14. Just like before, cartons packed with reasonable berries on top but near-rotting fruit on the bottom of the basket. 75% of the fruit was rotten by the next day. These guys know exactly what they are doing and they just don't care. I will NEVER buy from this stand again. You have been warned . read more

This has got to be the worst stand in the entire farmers market. I used to always get strawberries from there but they would go bad within a day so I stopped. I haven't bought from them in a couple of years but decided to give them another try. I bought a basket of strawberries and after my kids and I ate half of the basket we noticed that the bottom half of the strawberries were totally moldy. I returned the strawberries and asked for a refund. He gave me a dollar but not a full refund because we already ate half of the bad strawberries. I will never buy from them again. So disgusting. I hope we don't get sick. read more

We went to the Concord Farmers Market last week & bought Blackberries from them for our granddaughter. Luckily she didn't eat any cuz when we got home & I got them out there were little white worms in them. It was disgusting!!! So I kept them for a week & took them back today to the Concord Farmers Market Rodriguez stand & the man there said "When you buy from us & leave that's it, your stuck with it. We don't take back, refund, exchange, it's your problem". So, I was out the money I spent which I purchased 3 baskets full. That is very poor customer service! The other vendors go out of their way to make sure your satisfied. This man was rude & caused this farm to lose some customers. This is probably the first review I've ever written but this caused me to be extremely upset! Letting others know, check all your produce before buying from this farm or Don't Buy At All!!!!! They don't even rate 1 star but wouldn't let me not check one... read more
