Overview Project – take an approximate two-acre area and set up a demonstration vegetable and flower garden with an outdoor kitchen & market space for the public and private groups. Once set up successfully there is room for growth. We currently have someone starting the set up and are looking for someone to help with the process and then take over running it when completed. The ranch is >2000 acres with an existing pasture-based cattle and sheep enterprise. The ground set aside for the farm consists of about 0.5 acres with some fruit trees and scattered vegetables and another 1.5 acres that is in grass forage (~2 acres total). We have ample additional ground for later expansion (10+ acres additional). Both areas have irrigation. The Ranch owner’s vision is for a “demonstration farm” that could serve for agrotourism as well as local product sales. They would initially like to see row crops put in but are open to fruit and berry crops and greenhouse/hoophouse operations as well. As the farm comes together, they are hoping to bring in organic interns and Cal Poly students for additional labor and specific projects.
