This is Fred and he grows organic Bearss limes in Alameda. I had an idea to make Lemon Lime Mixer (and I still may), but the limes are so good, I left them alone to be enjoyed in all their...

Thomas Hunter Oh how I wish we could be there to sample some of your marmalade! It may be easier for us to get there than for you to send to Indonesia. We have a huge mango surplus, wish we could ship it to you!

Aren't they pretty? Strawberry jam now back in stock. I don't mind being out of stock, if it means waiting until the berries are red all the way through. Strawberry lemon mixer, anyone? I think this picture conveys the delicious...

Farmer Dale forgot the bergamot oranges Saturday, and as he says, "D'oh!". We had a very busy weekend with farmers markets, Mother's Day, and lest we forget, a boatload of fun with our friends to see some fireworks on the...

I'm often asked how we got into this crazy marmalade habit. Raspberries were our gateway drug. We started with a few wee plants from a neighbor. A few years later, we had massive bushes and a hard time keeping up...

Grant Kennell When are you going to do another demo at Bi-rite? That was fun! Especially when I got to wear the hot apron. Too bad the girls who smiled at me came by before that though. ;-)
