Farmer Feature: Pyramid Farms
Pyramid Farms is one of those staple Chico Certified Farmers’ Market booths you simply can’t walk by without stopping! From a vast array of pretty produce, to cheerful, smiling faces all around, Pyramid Farms has great products, a great spirit, and are always involved with the community!
Established in 1997 and growing right here in Chico, they offer fresh, local, and certified organic vegetables grown using sustainable practices. Owned and operated by Mathew and Lisa, Pyramid Farms have been at the Chico Certified Farmers’ Market for about 18 years! Their farm is located just five miles from the Saturday Morning Market – it doesn’t get much more local or fresh than that! They are enthusiastic first generation farmers who work with many local restaurants, providing fresh, organic produce. They make a true farm to table experience possible in Chico and have become respected members of the community.
Their farm is diverse, growing many varieties of fruit and vegetables, including a small fig orchard, but they also raise chickens and goats! They pride themselves of growing with respect and love, and each item is hand harvested at it’s peak to bring our community the very best! Pyramid Farms have been an organic farm from the very beginning, and became certified with C.C.O.F. in 2002.
