The Ratto Brothers began in 1905, when Antone L. Ratto—son of Italian immigrants—began delivering fresh vegetables around Bay Farm Island near Oakland, CA, using a humble horse-drawn cart.⁠

Over the years, Antone’s five sons grew up working the land, inspired by their father’s passion. In 1957, they joined forces to create the Ratto Bros. partnership, carrying on the family farming legacy.⁠

⁠Today, the Ratto Bros. proudly supply FreshPoint Central California with fresh, high-quality veggies like Napa cabbage, curly parsley, beets, and much more. ⁠

Earthy, sweet, and packed with nutrients, beets bring depth and vibrancy to any dish.

Roast them for a warm, caramelized flavor, shave them raw into salads for a fresh crunch, or blend into vibrant sauces and purees.

From starters to sides, beets add bold color and rich flavor that every chef can get creative with.

Kale is a hearty green that holds up beautifully, adding bold texture and deep flavor to any salad.⁠

Pair with a citrus or a light vinaigrette, then toss with roasted veggies, nuts, or tangy cheese for a seasonal hit.⁠

Fun fact: Kale is part of the cabbage family and was once called the “poor man’s cabbage” — but now it’s a superstar on menus worldwide! 🌿✨⁠

Fresh, versatile, and chef-approved — kale is ready to elevate your salad game.
