Question 1

What area does your farm serve?

Accepted Answer

While we have wonderful customers from further away, our farm mostly serves the Goleta, Santa Barbara, Montecito, Summerland & Carpinteria areas.

Question 2

Is your farm open to the public?

Accepted Answer

Our farm is not open to the public.  We are open for fruit and flower pick-ups - during certain seasons - by appointment only.  Please visit our 'Say Hello' page if you would like to join our email list for farm updates and seasonal availability.

Question 3

Do you ship your produce?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest, however, due to the perishable nature of our produce and flowers, we are unable to ship our products.

Question 4

Are you certified organic?

Accepted Answer

Out of our 45+ years of organic farming, we were certified organic for only 10 years.  We decided not to renew our certification because our daughter is the only employee helping her dad and she is needed in the fields.  The increasing record keeping / reporting requirements were too much for our small family to keep up with.  Our farming practices have not changed and we are dedicated to providing healthy produce & flowers for our customers.

When we feed our trees and flowers, we use only organic inputs such as organic worm castings, organic fish emulsion and more.  We love all pollinators and earthworms and our farming supports the bees and birds that live on the farm with us.

Question 5

Do you offer a U-Pick?

Accepted Answer

Due to the farm being a private residence and the popularity of the Apricot U-Pick, it outgrew the ability of our small family to manage.  We now arrange seasonal pickups at the farm by appointment only.
