Elkhorn Farm

Elkhorn Farm Welcome to our farm located in Central Coast California near the Elkhorn Slough. We grow South African wildflowers.

Elkhorn Farm produces South African proteas, pincushions, leucadendrons and heather; other mediterranean climate flowers; and hydrangeas. Very sadly, my husband and managing member of the LLC died in December 2017 and I sold most of the farm to Crescent Hill Nursery, which also now leases from me the farmland I still own. Therefore, I no longer sell the flowers and foliage at Elkhorn Farm. We also

have young olive trees that were planted to produce extra virgin olive oil when the trees mature. Elkhorn Farm is located on a hillside near the Elkhorn Slough tidal wetlands ecosystem. The farm is surrounded by native oak woodlands and the rare Pajaro Manzanita Chaparral plant community. The sandy soils and mediterranean climate of coastal California are ideal for the drought-tolerant flowers, foliage and olive trees we grow. Our farm began growing South African flowers in 1996 and was managed by a family-owned company - Exotic African Flora, LLC.

Even though the university is on break, Stellenbosch seemed to be a happening place leading up to the Easter weekend. I love visiting Stellenbosch for a couple of days when I visit South Africa. And I usually stay at the Oude Werf hotel.

I had a beautiful afternoon today in Stellenbosch with friends Nigel and Marchelle. It was so nice, we will do it again ...
