Anyone know of an orchard where you can pick your own fruit?

I remember a long time ago, my family would drive to an orchard about 2 hours away from SF to pick cherries, apricots, peaches, nectarines. They were extremely sweet right off the trees.

I think your talking about Brentwood. It is about a 75 minute drive from San Francisco and I know that Cherry picking season started last week but this week should be just fine(and probably the last) but White peaches and apricots should also be just about ripe right now.


Wait another month and they got some fresh corn,too!

Hmmm... Brentwood.

The name of the city wouldn't sound familiar, but I'll check it out. Thanks.

They might have some in Napa/Sonoma... can't seem to find any of these places online.

Anyone know names of orchards?

gizdich ranch is about an hour and a half south of SF. I only know about it cause I grew up 5 miles from it, but they do let you pick your own fruit.
