To honor all the men and women who make our state’s great bounty of fresh produce possible, CA Grown has declared October Farmer and Farmworker Month, and we’re honored to join the celebration! Some of the finest, freshest and most flavorful fruits and vegetables are grown right here in California, all thanks to the amazing farms and orchards throughout our great state, and the dedicated people who work them every day.

Enjoy the fruits (and vegetables) of California growers’ fall harvest with delicious produce picks from farms and producers like these:

Oh My Squash! Based in the beautiful Capay Valley of Yolo County, Full Belly Farm is a local, 400-acre certified organic farm that has been committed to sustainability since 1985. Look for their fantastic fall harvest of organic winter squash while it’s still in season.

P is for Pomegranates: Based in Reedley, California, Moonlight is “changing the world one fruit at a time” by partnering with Golden State growers who use sustainable farming techniques and are stewards of the land. We’re thrilled pomegranates are back on the menu!

Other California-grown produce you’ll find in our stores this season include fresh organic grapes, organic sweet potatoes and yams, persimmons, kiwifruit and navel oranges. Visit the produce department of your local Nugget Markets and look for our Local and CA-Grown icons to get a taste of what our Golden State has to offer!
