About Us
Lakeside Organic Gardens is family-owned and operated. We take pride in growing a wide offering of organic produce. Dick Peixoto, the owner, personally walks his fields daily to guarantee our 50+ organic vegetables are held to the highest quality and food safety standards.
Our produce is sold nationwide and into Western Canada. We sell to distributors, national chain grocers and processors, and personally deliver to grocery stores and restaurants in (what we call) our “local route” which includes San Francisco Bay Area cities.
In the marketplace, we’re known for our consistent quality. Though we’re considered a small grower/shipper, we’re respected for the quality, year-round availability and wide range of organic vegetables offered.

Practices
Unlike many conventional growers who adopt organic farming as a sideline, Lakeside Organic Gardens is 100% organic, 365 days a year. When posed with a challenge in the field, we don’t have the same tools as conventional farmers. We choose to work with Mother Nature to aid us in our troubles.
