Best Local Produce Stands

We’ve been told it’s weird to have a whole page dedicated to fruit stands, but the ones on the side of 80 are just so good – they deserve it!

Castaneda Brothers Produce

Fairfield

Rockville Road (WB side of 80)

A few minutes drive off the Interstate, but the quick drive through the truly beautiful Suisun Valley on historic Highway 40 is worth it.

Castaneda Brothers:  Pick your own heirloom tomatoes in season.
The Vegetable Patch: Brussels sprouts that we actually like, and that’s saying something.
Larry’s  Produce:  THE place to go for locals!

Dixon

Exit 63 (EB)  Dixon Fruit Market:  Killer salsas!

Sheep at Good Earth Produce

Exit 68 (WB) Pedrick Produce:  Who knew peppers could look this pretty?
Exit 69 (WB)  Bridgeway Farms:  Only open seasonally (haven’t seen it open this winter yet).
Exit 60 (WB):  Can’t tell if it’s called Olive Tree Produce or Good Earth Produce, but either way it’s worth a stop to visit the adjoining field of sheep and lambs.  Really!

Davis

Exit 78 (EB)  Yolo Fruit Stand:  Fresh tortillas, and local produce at great prices.  DO NOT try the mint yogurt soda.

Mace Rd- Ikeda’s:  A western outpost of the flagship Auburn store.

Loomis

Newcastle Produce
9230 Cypress Street
(916) 663-2016
Killer soups.  Stop and bring some up to the ski house for the weekend.

Ikeda's Fruit Stand

Auburn

Exit 122 (WB)  Ikeda’s:  The granddaddy of all fruit stands.  You need to go there to see it for yourself.  You just need to.
