We were driving by on a road trip and saw this U Pick cherry orchard and decided to stop off. My…read morefirst concern was whether they take cards, as I'm not a cash carrier, and to my surprise they did. We arrived about an hour before closing and there were only a few other people picking cherries. We walked up and were told what to look for and what cherries to avoid. We were handed bags and told how far on the property we could venture. The price was around $6.99 a pound. It's more expensive than the store for bing cherries, but you can't beat the quality, freshness and supporting a family business. We picked cherries for about 20 minutes and of course took the opportunity to take some pictures. We picked about a pound and a half and were on our way. This was a great quick stop and we had a healthy snack on our road trip. I would recommend stopping if you are in the area.

They did however have lots of other snacks and goods in stock, including hot sauce, olive jars, nuts, chocolate, garlic, garlic ice cream, and cold beverages. We picked up some oranges, dark chocolate almonds, and ghost pepper hot sauce. Service was standard, and there were only a few other customers, mainly outside getting hot food as there was a taco truck and food stand selling baked potatoes and corn. Porta potties were available on site. Parking was easy right in front, too.

Went cherry picking here in early June…read more Very simple. You "check in", they give you a bag(s) and a grasper for high up ones if you're serious (we weren't that serious). You walk around picking the cherries you want. The trees are marked to indicate the different varietals. You put them in your bag, and you go back to the table to pay for what you picked. Great date idea. There are a couple photo spots designed for Instagram type photos. We didn't use those, just took regular pics. And the whole thing cost like $10 for both of us. That's less than 2 coffees and you get the cherries too. Make sure to check in advance as crops aren't always predictable.

It was our first time at Mariani and we had a great time picking cherry ..though, we went toward…read moreend of cherry picking season ( last weekend be 6/12/26)? , there was still plenty of nice ripe cherry to pick , small to large sizes , even some at toddler height level . No outside bags or buckets allowed, they will give u plastics bags ... wear good shoes cuz there were many fallen cherry on certain parts and dirts on the grounds. I would recommend shoes you don't mind getting dirty or stained. Parking was small but we still found parking at the entrance maybe cuz we went toward end of the season and later in the afternoon. If going on warm spring weather , bring a hat or umbrella., there were still plenty of shades under cherry trees as walk tree to tree or row to row . We got carried away and end up picking 6 lb +, cost added up fast . 6.50$ per pound for cherry and 3.50$ / lb for apricots . Both cherry and apricots were sweet ! Distanced only 20 mins from San Jose Central area , which is great location if you are in nearby town/city .

It is located off of the Pacheco pass and it is a wonderful place to get fresh deli sandwiches, wine, ice cream, other foods, and other merchandise items that are farm cultivated. I found a pomegranate jam here, my husband located the fruit wine, and we ordered a wonderful deli sandwich each. The restrooms in the store are smelly, but they're functional. There are so many items here in very good snacks that are healthy and unhealthy that you can't go wrong. Whatever you're looking for they have it here. They have a carousel and a train for family fun and they have a candy shop that has ice cream in different coffee drinks in it. I was just amazed to see this attraction when we drove up. There's also a great restaurant here and people come to eat here often because we saw it and it was packed. I highly recommend if you see Casa de Fruta, stopping by to enjoy this attraction.

While we didn't see it listed on the menu board, when my wife asked the order taker, she knew exactly what we wanted and told her that the wait would be 15 minutes as they made them to order. OMG, it was beautiful! Loaded with fresh strawberries and just enough glaze to bind it, the glaze did not overwhelm the taste of the strawberries. You can't really slice it as created. Instead, you pick off some of the fruit on top until it's down to a manageable height and then we use a large spoon to parse it out. Whipped cream? Ice cream? Both would be excellent accompaniments to be sure, but we used neither.
