The picturesque Farmstand Garden was created by brothers Peter and Charles Jacobsen, with a grant from the Imagine Yountville Community Foundation. It is lovingly maintained by the Jacobsons and a small crew of volunteers. The garden is a compact seasonal assortment of fruit trees, vegetables and flowers, ranging from predictable choices such as tomatoes and basil to unexpected varieties, including white cucumbers and pumpkins. There is always something new to try.      

Put in on your calendar that Thursday is harvest day! Ripe and ready produce is picked, cleaned and taken to The Coop by noon, where it is available for purchase at a 50% discount to residents of Yountville.
