Juliano Farms

The apples in our fruit cups, pies, and crisps, and the blueberries in our homemade scones, come from Juliano Farms, a family-owned farm market in Utica. Our menu shifts with the seasons: berries in summer, pumpkin and warm spices in fall, and citrus in winter and spring. We also make our own vanilla extract from the finest vanilla beans, a subtle sweetness in our waffles, pancakes, French toast, and baked goods.
