They provide the little buckets and also scissors for lavender. It is hard to find u-pick berries that is certified organic around the Sacramento area. It is especially difficult to get pesticides off fruits with no peel like berries. Fun outing for kids if you are looking for something to do on a weekend. They may only open certain hours so check their website for hours and updates before you go.

This is my second year participating in Great Basin's Community Supported Agriculture Basket. I…read morethink it's a wonderful program. It's a weekly basket of local, seasonal, sustainable produce You prepay for the season and each week you pick up a big box full of a variety of goods. Sometimes you get nuts and fruits thrown into the mostly veggie mix. I split my pickup with two other friends as I am single and mostly cook for myself I could never finish one box in a timely fashion. I'm enjoying the Spring Basket which is 10 weeks of various salad greens, garlic, green onion, fresh herbs, radishes, carrots, garlic and so much more. Summer is 14 weeks of bountiful produce (just take a look at their website to see all that's included!) with beautiful Fallon melons and the occasional basket of raspberries or strawberries that made me alarmed at how delicious the fruit can be. (I literally said "omg, these strawberries have so much strawberry flavor!!" because I had become used to those huge but bland or tart berries from the grocery store). I chose to participate in this instead of going to the weekly farmers markets because this way I'm forced to try new things I might not pick out on my own. It's been fun to try new veggies and get these beautiful mostly organic heirloom varieties as well. Each week they send out a newsletter keeping you updated as to what's being harvested and what to expect in the coming week so you can menu plan. They also include recipe suggestions each week. At the end of the season they hold a potluck "Day at the Farm" at Lattin Farms which was neat to meet others and go on Hay rides and corn mazes. The organizers and participating Farmers are gracious and good at taking feedback. I'm surprised at the variety of things that are grown in northern Nevada (or nearby) although there was quite an abundance of zucchini, tomatoes, and melons every week. Overall it's a great program and I'll likely continue to participate as long as they offer it. They are expanding their pickup points and times and also offer a flower basket too.

I just joined the Great Basin Basket CSA for the first time this summer. I got my second basket…read morelast week (I signed up for both the fruits and vegetables). As mentioned in the earlier review, you pay in advance for the summer and receive a "basket" every week for 14 weeks of fresh produce from local farmers. We share both baskets with my parents as it's too much for one couple to eat. POSITIVES: You get REALLY fresh fruit and produce every week. We eat more fruits and vegetables than ever before and it forces me to try new recipes. Instead of buying the same thing every week I am getting creative and having a BLAST doing it. The fruits and vegetables really are some of the best I've ever tried. You also get a variety of fresh herbs. This last week we got Sun Jewel Melon which I've never even heard of! Not to mention, it feels good knowing that you are supporting local farmers! NEGATIVES: It's pricier than if you were to go to the local farmers market and buy the same amount of produce. We pay $32.15/week for vegetables and $20/week for fruits. For $52/week we could go crazy at the Saturday farmers market and be buying from a lot of the same growers! Also, because we can't pick up the items until after work (5:30ish) they've been in the heat/sun for a few hours and unfortunately require a lot of TLC to be able to save them for a few days. We are forced to eat a lot of it in the first couple of days (as they are ripe NOW) and then end up buying produce at the store to last the rest of the week anyways. Overall, I am really enjoying my purchase. I'm not sure I could afford to sign up again next year, but since I'm prepaid for 14 weeks I am going to definitely enjoy the fresh produce and exciting variety I receive each week. If you don't have to watch your money very closely and like the idea of trying new items while supporting local business then I highly suggest you sign up for the CSA www.greatbasinbasket.com.

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.

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.

We've bought the Summer, Winter and the (new) Spring veggie shares, plus the fruit and bread. The weekly box really inspires us to eat more, and varied produce. Great for our health, and really fun to try new veggies! Every week there is a lettuce and herb, and then the rest of the box is stuffed full of a myriad of seasonal choices. A photo and description of the box items is posted on Facebook each week, and an email shares information about the crops, plus recipes. The farm itself is charming, with a stream and covered bridge. I love supporting the young family who runs this wonderful addition to our community. There are also weekly roadside Farm Stands which feature veggies from the farm. So worth the short lovely drive through Meadow Vista to the Foothill Roots Farm!

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

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!

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