Crops
Nestled in a high canyon, half way between Atascadero and Morro Bay, our unique microclimate allows us to grow a wide variety of crops, both annual and perennial, and there's almost nothing we haven't tried.

Tree Fruit
Citrus and Stonefruit are our biggest crops, with roughly 400 citrus trees in the ground. When in season, you can find our fruit at Whole Foods, and other local healthfood stores. We primarily grow Satsuma and Gold Nugget Tangerines, which are both easy-peel, seedless varieties.

Dried Herbs
Calendula, Lavender and Yarrow are the three main herbs that we grow, and dry in our greenhouse for sale to All Good. We grow about 3/4 acre of Calendula each year, planting in the Spring, Summer and Fall, and we produce about 200 lbs. of the dried herb annually. We are happy to provide consultation if you're interested in growing a large volume.

Mixed Vegetables
Our Market Garden produces an abundance of vegetables, primarily for a CSA that we provide to the employees of All Good. We're also growing some specialty asian vegetables for Feed My Seoul, a Korean food truck on the Central Coast.

Cut Flowers
We lease two acres to Farmermaid Flowers, which produces specialty cut flowers for the local farmers markets, grocery stores, floral designers and wedding / event industry.
