Oz Farm grows apples, pears and a large variety of vegetables. We have 17 acres certified organic by California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF). Apples and pears are a special feature of the Oz Farming operation. We specialize in the production of unusual and antique apples that are "espaliered" (trained on trellises in rows much like grapes in vineyards). Some of our most interesting and popular varieties include:
We typically make three pressings of fresh apple juice each fall, one each in September, October and November, and are slowly learning the craft of making a decent hard cider. Our apple juice blend customers include restaurants and natural food stores in San Francisco, the wholesale market, local farmers' markets, and schools. Our market garden features a variety of vegetables including salad mix, potatoes, garlic, onions, herbs, and many other vegetables. Oz Farm runs a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, offering weekly deliveries of seasonal produce from the Farm to our subscribers in the Point Arena area. Under the CSA concept, small farmers and local consumers join together in mutually a beneficial economic partnership—consumers get fresh, organically-raised foods from a source they know and farmers benefit from having a more stable market for what they produce.
