Mission

Sebastopol Berry Farm was started in 1986 by Tarcicio and Sabina Vigil who purchased Green Valley Farms. (Green Valley planted the first blueberries in California in 1940.)

We are a small family farm with everyone involved in either selecting varieties, picking berries or selling them at local farmers markets. Since 1986 the farm expanded into other types of berries such as raspberries, blackberries and strawberries.

We are dedicated to growing the most flavorful berries, picking them at their peak and offering them fresh directly to our customers.

The bees and black raspberries - a perfect partnership



The bees are hard at work pollinating the black raspberries. Black raspberries have more antioxidants than blueberries! They are great to eat fresh or in jams. Or if you're feeling super adventurous you can make a black raspberry sorbet. We have been growing black raspberries for about 10 years and we expect them to be in season mid to late June.
