Maggiore Cherry Ranch's Walnut Boulevard stand anchors one of three Brentwood locations the family runs along the Marsh Creek u-pick corridor, itself home to more than 65 direct-to-consumer growers. Alongside its cherries, this location added two rows of Himalayan mulberry trees and now sells pre-picked mulberries in season, a rarity on a route otherwise dominated by stone fruit.

The Camino Diablo Road stand is the third Maggiore Cherry Ranch location in Brentwood, part of the same family cherry operation spread across the Marsh Creek growing area. Like its sister stands, it sells fruit direct off the tree during Brentwood's cherry season, typically mid-May through June.
