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.

Berry Update #2

Organic blueberries are at the peak of the season this week. This is a great week to buy if you are going to freeze or make jams.

Ollalie blackberries - with the heat this weekend the last of the crop picked up great flavor. Last full week with any real quantities at the farmers markets.

Marion blackberries - we had a few this weekend at the farmers markets. This coming week we'll have them again at the markets. Super sweet and juicy!

Cheyenne blackberries - we've had them for a few weeks and the flavor on these berries is excellent. About a week left in the season

Black raspberries - these berries have been excellent this season. Last full week for these too. We only get one crop a year (not like the red raspberries where we get a spring and fall crop) so don't miss out.

Boysenberries - like the Ollalie's picked up great flavor over the weekend. These are my personal favorite. Get them while they're in season - ~1 full week.
