• K + K Ranch Organic Raisins - K+K Ranch is a fourth generation family-owned and operated farm in Tulare County, California. Known for their incredible produce, dried fruits, and nuts, we are so lucky (and grateful) to partner with K+K Ranch to offer their delicious organic goods!

• Paso Almonds Almond Brittle, LB - California Family Farm Product’ #1 seller! Almonds, butter, sugar - simple to say, hard to make, easy to enjoy! Though Paso Robles’ reign as the “almond capital of the world” was nearly a century ago (circa 1910s-1940s), Russell “Rusty” Hall is still keeping that heritage alive thanks to his Paso Almonds products. Hall’s family began ranching and farming in the Paso Robles area in the 1860s and later bought a 93-acre parcel of dry-farmed almonds that he took over in 1974. Originally, Hall just sold his raw almonds at various farmers markets, only making his signature thick, crunchy almond brittle for family and friends as holiday gifts. However, in 1992, in an effort to raise funds for the San Luis Obispo Literacy Council, Hall sold his first bags of brittle at the Thursday night Farmers Market in downtown San Luis Obispo. Since then, both the business and the product line have considerably expanded.

  • Almond Brittle: almonds, butter, sugar--in that order by weight, in fact, more almonds than the other ingredients combined. No corn syrup, no invert sugar, no baking soda, no any of those other ingredients that most people add to make their brittle softer, cheaper, easier. A California Family Farm Product.

• Rancho Meladuco Organic Dates, LB - Rancho Meladuco Date Farm was founded in 2015 by Joan Smith a mom of 3 and accountant turned date farmer in Southern California. Joan and her husband grew dates on their family ranch in the Coachella Valley for many years and friends and family, accustomed to their annual gifts of the freshly harvested, hand-packed dates, plead with them to sell the delicious dates they were growing. When her youngest child turned 4, Joan decided it was time to take a turn at date farming. Known for being exceptionally tender, juicy and flavorful, Rancho Meladuco dates are what the date industry refers to as fresh dates due to their higher moisture levels. The resounding feedback is always the same from those who try them: "these are the best dates ever!" For Rancho Meladuco, they are unquestionably the most delectable and candy-like dates, so moist dates are the only dates they pack in their prime, hand-packed boxes offered here. Joan's life and interests led her to this venture in growing dates. She possesses a love of working the land, being outdoors, great food, cooking, and especially of providing pleasing and delicious food to others. They grow their date palms with love and passion, pack their dates with care and creativity, and partner with other growers in their small community to provide the best fruit available.

  • A pound of Rancho Meladuco Date Farm’s hand-selected Medjool dates, hand-packed at their prime in their signature! Kraft box. There are approximate 17-22 dates per 1 lb. box. Unpitted.

• Valerie Confections Chocolate Bar - Founded in 2004 in Los Angeles by chocolatier Valerie Gordon and partner Stan Weightman Jr., Valerie Confections was quickly recognized as one of the top artisan confectioners in the country. Entirely self-trained, Valerie started her namesake company with six flavors of chocolate-dipped toffee, quickly gaining an ardent fan-base for her modern interpretation of classic chocolates and confections, elegant gift packaging, and commitment to using the very best, all-natural ingredients. In 2013, Valerie and Stan opened Valerie Echo Park, now a staple of the Echo Park community. Later that year, Valerie published her first cookbook, Sweet (Artisan Books), which went on to be a finalist at the James Beard Awards and is filled with her beloved recipes, helpful tricks, and recreations of classic desserts from lost Los Angeles restaurants.

  • The Jon & Vinny’s Nutella Milk Chocolate Bar features 38% milk chocolate tempered with Nutella hazelnut spread, inspired by Jon & Vinny’s favorite dessert flavors. OR Peppermint Bar Chocolate Bar hand made with white chocolate generously layered with bittersweet chocolate chips and Valerie’s house-made peppermint candy.
