Be Wise Ranch


Be Wise Ranch, located in the Santa Fe Valley, just twenty miles north of San Diego, is a local source of organic and seasonal produce. Be Wise Ranch sells their produce locally at Jimbo's (Escondido, Carlsbad, Del Mar & 4S Ranch), Baron's (Rancho Bernardo & Point Loma), Cream of the Crop (Oceanside), and People's Food Coop (Ocean Beach).

If you want to get your hands on some on their mouth watering, sun-ripened produce, you can go to one of the stores listed abve. But here's the even better news: You can also sign up for their CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program and get fresh vegetables and fruits delivered the day they are picked to a drop off location near your home or work. Locations include State College, North Park, Mission Hills, Mira Mesa, Rancho Bernardo, Escondido, Ocean Beach/Pt. Loma, Pacific Beach, University City, Poway, Rancho Penasquitos, Scripps Ranch, Encinitas, Leucadia, Fallbrook, and Vista. You select the location that's most convenient for you.

And it just keeps getting better. Signing up for the CSA will actually save you money. The CSA puts you in direct contact with your local farmer, so you cut out the middle man, saving money every week. You can choose from a large or small box, and a weekly or bi-weekly pick up, so you get the amount of produce that works for you. Getting your box of veges is like having your birthday every week (or every other week): You get loads of delicious fresh food taht will make you so happy when you pull the produce out of the box. You will continually be amazed at how much you get for such a good price.
