GET TO KNOW A VENDOR
Episode 06 - Sycamore Hill Ranch Another excellent example of "LOCAL", "ORGANIC", and "FAMILY FARM". It's what the Farmers' Market program in California is all about. Based in Fillmore, Sycamore Hill Ranch has been in the Stehley Family since 1960, and Jeanne Stehley continues to maintain the family's valencia and navel orange groves. Filmore and the surrounding area was once a very prominent citrus growing area. Many of the citrus groves have been cleared to make way for housing or row crops. You can help support local organic farmers (like Sycamore Hill) who are keeping the tradition alive. Stop by and say hello to Juan and Gisella and get a big smile from their beautiful baby girl Gaby. And that hard working and polite young man? That's Juan's nephew Anthony. (He might give you a big smile, too!) Then load up on delicious ORGANIC oranges, grapefruit, lemons, sapote and avocados. |
