Support local #Sacramento farmers: Try Farm Fresh to You

You’ve probably seen lots of those meal kits being hawked on various websites, right? They’re supposed to help you figure out your dinners by prepackaging all of the ingredients you need to make a healthy meal for your family. Maybe you’ve even tried a few of them.

What if I told you it’s time to level up? Because now you can get your groceries delivered direct from the farm!

Farm Fresh to You isn’t a meal kit. It’s a box of fully customizable produce and groceries, delivered weekly. You can choose from Mixed Fruit & Veggie boxes, “No Cooking” boxes (for folks who like to eat on the go), Fruit Only, a Traditional CSA box (CSA stands for “community supported agriculture”), Veggie Only boxes, or the Snack Pack.

Here’s how it works:

Farm Fresh to You brings the season’s best mix of 100% certified-organic produce and hand-crafted farm products conveniently to your door by growing and partnering with local farms and artisans. Each delivery comes with news from their family farm, delicious recipes, quick tips and the option to customize your box online.

In short: they bring the farmers market to you!

More to love: Farm Fresh to You is a second-generation family farm. In 1976 Kathleen Barsotti and Martin Barnes—graduate students at UC Davis—borrowed money from their parents to buy 20 acres of property in Capay Valley. Today, the family continues to grow on the same farm, combining agricultural techniques learned from their parents and internet savvy to connect with a new generation of eco-conscious customers.

YOLO in Yolo

Finally, a use for this hilarious gif I stumbled upon one fine day!

YOLO, for the uninitiated, is an acronym that stands for You Only Live Once.

Yolo, on the other hand, is a county adjacent to Sacramento: Yolo County!

I have to admit I am tickled by the idea of getting my YOLO on in Yolo County. Preferably with a llama, or even an alpaca.

Some highlights, if you’d like to visit Yolo County:
