On January 14th, I met Annabelle, an absolute gem of a woman selling some of the freshest produce I’d ever laid eyes on. Naturally, I had to ask her about it, and one question turned into a whole adventure.

Before I knew it, she introduced me to her boss, Higinio Orozco, the mastermind behind Orozco Farms. Despite our language barrier, we hit it off instantly—proving that good food and good vibes speak their own language! Fast forward a bit, and there I was, meeting the team and securing my very first batch of farm-fresh goodness!

On January 18th, I met TK—a super cool guy who was busy slicing up samples at his booth at the Danville Farmers Market. He caught me eyeing his pears and, without hesitation, insisted I try one.

Let me tell you, it was next level—easily one of the best pears I’ve ever tasted! Of course, I had to ask about buying in bulk for my business. He was all in, handed me his contact info, and you know I reached out right away to make sure I stayed on his radar!
