Local Sustainability

The Uniqueness of the Salinas Valley

We typically grow around thirty different crops on our farm, ranging from strawberries and lettuces to items such as corn, pumpkins and tomatoes. This wide variety of produce is made possible by the uniqueness of the Salinas Valley in terms of soil and weather. In the valley itself, there are around eighty different kinds of fruits and vegetables farmed for market every year. This bounty demonstrates the fact that the Salinas Valley is certainly the most productive farmland in the country, if not the world.

History

Immediately adjoining our farmshop, you can also see many free-standing, giant statues painted by local artist John Cerney. These statues are modeled on current and former employees of our farming company.
