CLOSED for the 2026 season! We are unable to open 2026 due to insufficient cherry crop this year. Not enough chill hours and ill timed rain, heat. We will miss seeing all the beautiful people / families that come to enjoy our farm. We look forward to next season!

California doesn’t really do predictable either… it just changes zip codes. 🌴🌤️

Out here, the unofficial state uniform is hoodie and shorts—because committing to the weather is still a rookie mistake. 😭

It’s that mindset of,
“Yeah it’s 95 inland right now… but drive 40 minutes toward the coast and suddenly you need a hoodie.”

The shorts are for when the sun decides to go full Central Valley mode like it’s trying to cook the sidewalk… and the hoodie is for when that coastal breeze shows up acting like it owns the whole afternoon.

You’ll see it everywhere—gas stations off Highway 99, beach parking lots, coffee runs before work, road trips through the hills, someone standing outside like they dressed for three different forecasts at once.

No hesitation.
No second guessing.
Just California layering logic.

Because in California, the forecast isn’t a plan… it’s a location-based surprise.

You wake up to fog, hit dry heat by lunch, catch wind by evening, and somehow still end the day asking,
“Wait… am I hot or cold?” 😅

It’s not about fashion.

It’s about surviving a state where the coast says one thing, the valley says another, the mountains have their own opinion, and the desert is just screaming in the background.

Welcome to California—
where hoodie and shorts isn’t an outfit…

it’s a survival strategy. 🌊☀️
