The veil of secrecy has been removed from the latest product from J Marchini Farms, the Marchini Almond! Discovered in 1962 by my Nonno, Joe Marchini, the patented Marchini Almond variety is a special almond perfect for blanching, slicing, dicing and whole nuts. The Marchini variety is grown here in Le Grand, California in our own almond orchards and thrives in our climate and soil. Harvest happened just a few weeks ago, so check out our new website where you can purchase Marchini Almonds and have them shipped to you!

Views in the Field
In Madera County I happen to come upon a harvest crew on a rainy sunday morning in late December. Upon closer inspection I noticed that I was not familiar with the crop they were harvesting.
I took these pictures, did some research, and found out that the crop is Romanesco Cauliflower, an heirloom variety.
