I made an appointment to pick apples on September 27. They sent reminders a couple of times including the day before. I got there and there was nobody but the farmer there.......so why the appointment unless it was to trick people into thinking it was a popular place to go? He could have let me know that before I drove 35 minutes.
Then he wasted 20 minutes of my time showing me some herbs he was growing. I had never heard of most of them and wasn't interested. Then he let me go pick.......but THERE WERE NO APPLES ON ANY OF THE TREES. When I told him there weren't any apples. He helpfully showed me a quince tree with one quince on it. He also said I could pick some of the strawberries in a very small patch in which I saw 3 unripe strawberries. I felt SCAMMED.

Save yourself and skip this one. I went here to pick apples with my son—several varieties of apples are advertised on their website, some staring in late August. When I arrived, “Farmer Mike” “educated” me that apples were a fall crop, not summer, and that I would have to be patient. He told me, “If you want apples, have someone throw them at you at the store.” And then tried to convince my son that we should pick strawberries. If your farm doesn’t have apples, don’t advertise them on your website, rather than aggressively blaming your customers.

This farm is not worth to visit. It's a waste of time. We drove there for 50 minutes to get vegetables and fruits, when we arrived there, it was nothing to collect. 0 tomatoes, 0 bell peppers, only 1 cucumber was found. they have plenty of blackberry bouches, but they are sour and not eatable. They also claim they have strawberries but it's not true, there are some strawberry plant under the tree, but no berries. Everything that grows is grass and not maintained at all. After everything the guy told us we can enjoy therapy horse that was in the farm.

The best farm in the bay area. El Sobrante is a hidden gem over 4 acres of pure outdoors. Farmer Micheal is the best tour farm guide. We had a wonderful time outdoors. Apple picking, pluotts, chocolate mint and strawberry ? mint... The honey bees... ? Great spot for family outing or day date .

Pictures are worth 1,000 words, so I don't need to say much. Susan and Farmer Mike are the salt of the earth.

Wandered in on a whim on a rainy spring day and was welcomed in like an old friend by Susan and Farmer Michael who led me on a tasting tour of the edible herbs and other crops. Afterward I picked myself an early mother's day bouquet. It was raining so much I didn't capture any pics of the farm but here's my bouquet once in a vase at home. Thank you Cloverfield for the beautiful, healthy, inspiring and inclusive place you're creating.

The staff was very informative and nice. I was given a tour of the farm and got to sample a lot of the produce. I ended up purchasing local olive oil and honey and picking collard and mustard greens. Oh yes, and I got to meet and feed Magic the comfort horse!!!! Also, I'm normally a fan of honey, but once I taste the honey here, I've changed my mind.

He was so condescending and was making fun of and commenting on my group's clothes the entire time. We were told that there would be apples to pick yet when asked when we got there, again we were expecting an apple orchard because that was advertised, he said that 50 paying customers came and took them all the day before. Very condescending and rude the entire time. Making unnecessary comments to me like 'where'd you come from? Church?' Terrible experience.

I think our expectations were perhaps a bit high for this place after reading such glowing reviews on Google. There is a really huge range of different trees, plants and herbs, but because of that there is not that much of each - it's a fairly small farm. On the day we went there was virtually no fruit that was ripe and limited veg options (plenty of herbs though). Going in early September we were sure there would at least be some berries but the handful of strawberry plants were bare and the blackberries were mostly small or dried out. For some reason the guy showing us around didn't seem to want to just tell us what was available and seemed annoyed that we would ask. If you live nearby it's a nice place to wander around and with the right timing I'm sure there is some good stuff to pick at a decent price, but just manage your expectations.

What a wonderful day spent picking organics from this little farm tucked away in the middle of the city. Sure I could have gone to a farmers market but it was way more fun going out with family for the day and harvesting our own fruits, vegetables and herbs in the sunshine. It's pretty simple, check their online calendar for available produce, pick up a basket and clippers when you get there and go for it! They even have honey and olive oil for tasting and purchase. They charge by the bushel and you can pay via Venmo. There's a beautiful Appalachian horse named Gentle Ben there who roams around. You can pet him, take a picture with him and feed him apples. This was a real treat for my granddaughter. We'll definitely be back for the various season's pickings.
