A favorite pear of ours is here and ready for taste testing! From our neighbors down under, the Taylor’s Gold Pear was first discovered in New Zealand in 1986. It is a natural mutation of the Comice pear, making it even sweeter and juicier than the average pear! Its golden cinnamon, rose-blushed colored skin distinguishes the Taylor’s Gold pear. The fruit tends to be large and plump with a creamy white flesh and smooth texture.
Track 7 Brewing Company brews and hand-crafts their ales and lagers seven barrels at a time. Brewing in small batches allows this Sacramento brewery to create dynamic beers that taste fresh.

The Graham and Scott families named the company after the brewery’s close proximity to the old Western Pacific railroad tracks, commemorating the integral role the railroad has played in Sacramento’s rich history. Join us in celebrating Sacramento’s history with Track 7 Brewing Company!

It's artichoke season and this “super” spring produce is here to provide you and your family with an abundant amount of nutrients!

The “meaty” part of the artichoke supplies inulin, a prebiotic that helps fuel the healthy bacteria living in our intestines. And if that isn’t enough, one artichoke supplies over 25% of the Daily Value for fiber and vitamin C!
