Southern California Day Trips

Bates Nut Farm San Diego County

The farm is tucked away in an oak filled valley near Valley Center. Finding the farm is an adventure for first time visitors. Valley Center is on the verge of a building boom with a new main road and tracts of housing starting to show up. So far Bates Farm has retained it's rural atmosphere due to it's location 3 miles from the main highway. Once you turn down Woods Valley Road you take a trip back in time. The farm store offers nuts, fruits, candies, packaged delicacies and locally grown produce. There is also a petting zoo and the Farmer’s Daughter gift shop. Bates Nut Farm is a nice day trip and a good place to stock up on all kinds of good things to eat. Bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the picturesque oak filled valley.
