Not every great restaurant announces itself loudly, and Oceanview Diner in Berkeley, California is proof that the best ones often don’t.

This California Farm Market Is A Local Favourite For Affordable Fall Produce

Some of the pumpkins here can grow to around 1,000 pounds. That’s heavier than a grand piano, and they share a patch with more than 40 other varieties. The best part might be the price of admission. Entry to the pumpkin patch is free, and so are the corn maze and the straw pyramid.

Napa is a crossroads — of old-timers and newcomers, of chefs who chase the seasons and farmers who coax life from the land, of dreamers who believe that food and wine can be a kind of poetry.
