The Urban Edge Farm

About Us

The Urban Edge Farm is a 34-acre farm. There are 4 acres of certified organic vegetables and 16 acres of organic orchard. The orchards are mainly for UPICK. Our orchards are fully organic certified since the summer of 2021.The farm is located about 50 miles east of San Francisco in the heart of the Sacrament-San Joaquin Delta, one of the most productive agricultural areas in the world. The farm is owned by Bob & Barbara Cecchini and family.

Cecchini & Cecchini, Inc (the parent company of The Urban Edge Farm) has continuously operated farming businesses since the 1930. Barbara and Bob have been running it together for more than forty years. The Urban Edge Farm is their newest enterprise advising and running both the farm and its farm store operations.

The farm raises and markets over 50 different specialty organic vegetables, herbs, and fruits, providing year-round employment. We practice regenerative growing techniques that keep our land vital and sustainable, such as planting cover crops, composting, and cultivating habitat areas for beneficial insects and wildlife.

Historically, the San Francisco Bay Area has always enjoyed marvelously diverse local food from surrounding agricultural regions, thanks to the mild climate and rich, alluvial soils. Despite decades of rapid growth in and around Silicon Valley, significant farming areas still survive on the urban edges of its cities. Brentwood is the largest agricultural region in the East Bay, encompassing 12,000 acres of prime, contiguous farmland that produce unparalleled fruits, berries, vegetables, nuts, and wine grapes. Brentwood is also legendary for its U-pick orchards, farm stands, and growing agritourism.

The Urban Edge Farm is located on Walnut Boulevard between Payne and Concord Avenues, in the middle of farm stand row. Our stand is the only one in the area that’s open year-round and features all-organic fruits and vegetables. We also carry jams, jellies, pickles, fresh bread, eggs honey, oils, vinegars, Frog Hollow bakery items, goat’s-milk soap, and other goodies—all locally grown and made. From May through October, our U-pick orchard features some of the most delicious apricots, peaches, nectarines, pluots, figs, pomegranates, and persimmons you’ve ever eaten. Apples, more figs & persimmons will be available in the Summer & Fall of 2024.

There is a childrens’ playground, picnic areas and UPick Flowers and Cherry tomatoes.

Bring yourself, bring your family—and come for an hour, come for the day. We’d love to see you!
