For $25 I got a 5 lb bag of mixed peppers, potatoes, carrots, chard, rosemary, broccolini, radishes, sweet onions and fresh cayenne peppers! It is all local, organic, and sustainable food and a fantastic perk of living in San Francisco.

The Mystery Bag!

I shared this food with great friends and we had an epic feast of roast vegtables and chicken, pairing it with a Rose, then did a little comparison of Grenache from California versus French Riviera.   California won!

Mariquita Farm is a small family farm located near Watsonville, CA. They grow organic specialty vegetables, greens and herbs for their Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) members in Santa Cruz County, Silicon Valley, Monterey, the Peninsula, and San Francisco and for many Restaurants in San Francisco.
