The
Farm is a unique agricultural showcase. It consists of an agricultural
education center, demonstration farm, produce stand and recreation
destination. The Farm is designed to tell the story of contemporary
farming amidst the majestic surroundings of California's Central
Coast.
 The
Farm is located in the Salinas Valley in Monterey County, a two hour drive
south of San Francisco. The Salinas Valley is one of the most fertile and productive
agricultural regions in the world. This beautiful valley supplies the nation
with a bountiful array of fresh produce, and is thus known as the salad bowl
of the world.
 At
The Farm visitors can learn about real farming. By participating
in a farm tour, one can meet with professional farmers to
find out how our vegetables are produced. From planting to
harvest, we are excited to share about agriculture with the
public and our valued customers. The oversized art figures
of farmers and farm workers illustrate how we grow food.
 We
offer a great variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, and fresh-cut
flowers at our produce stand. Much of our produce is grown
on the premises and is certified organic. Our collection
of typical farm animals is a source of amusement and pleasure
for young and old.
 Custom
tours are available upon request and are tailored to your
interest level. We have a calendar of special events throughout
the year, as we celebrate harvests and holidays, offer educational
lectures and cooking demonstrations, and provide families
and children with wholesome recreation----all on The Farm!
