LMR Rutherford Gardens in Napa Valley

0

One of my favorite places for produce in Napa Valley is LMR Rutherford Gardens.  Not only can you buy excellent organic produce right from the farm but they also encourage you to walk around the farm and stay for a while.  The produce is fresh and seasonal, of course, but they also have a great selection of grass-fed beef from their farm.  As well, they sell amazing olive oils from their own olive trees.  My favorite for finishing soups, crostini and salads is their Prato Lungo extra-virgin olive oil.  It has a fresh, grassy, citrusy aroma and a smooth, peppery taste.  They sell fresh eggs from the chickens on their farm, as well. 

When visiting LMR Rutherford Gardens, be sure to check out their huge fig tree – you can’t miss it, really.  It has a wonderful picnic table underneath and the most amazing figs you’ve ever tasted (in season, of course)!  Also walk around and see what farm animals are close by.  You’ll likely see some activity going on, too as this is a working farm. 

This farm is owned by the folks at Long Meadow Ranch.  They re-open for the season on May 2nd.  Their hours are Wednesdays-Fridays in the afternoon from 1pm-6pm and on Saturdays from 9am-5pm.  They also sell at the St. Helena Farmers Market on Fridays from May-October.
