Welcome to our Farm!
Willow Pond Organic Farm is a 38-acre organic
vegetable farm and apple orchard. We are located in the Apple Hill
area just two miles from downtown Placerville in a beautiful rural
setting. Our Market Stand is situated on the edge of the vegetable
fields (so you can see your food growing) adjacent to our large
wildlife pond. We have picnic tables by the pond and welcome visitors
to stroll around our fields and orchards. Children and pets are always
welcome. We are also handicap accessible.
We grow more than 40 kinds of vegetables, eight varieties of apples,
figs, cut flowers, herbs, honey and in the fall we offer U-pick apples
and a huge pumpkin patch. Other local farmers contribute fresh eggs,
peaches, nectarines, plums, blueberries, grapes, nuts, raisins, and
pastries made from our organic fruits. Everything we offer is
locally grown, picked fresh and at the peak of ripeness.

Affordable Prices!
We know many people are put off by the high prices of organic produce
in the grocery stores. You will be pleasantly surprised to find that
we charge much lower prices for much higher quality and more variety.
When you shop with us, there are no middlemen, no shipping costs, no
distributor or storage costs. Buying directly from the farmer
straight out of the fields/orchards means lower prices for fresh
organic food.
Additionally, we frequently have “Specials” when there is a bumper
crop of something. We are happy to pass on our bountiful good
fortune to you in the way of even better prices.
