San Diego boasts America's most ideal growing climate with average temperatures of 71°F year-round and minimal temperature variation. The coastal influence and diverse microclimates from sea level to mountain foothills support incredible agricultural diversity. With virtually no frost and 266 sunny days, farms can grow continuously throughout the year.
Spanish missionaries planted California's first orchards here in 1769. The region later became the avocado capital of America and pioneered modern strawberry cultivation. Today's farms range from historic ranches to innovative organic operations, with San Diego County producing over $1.8 billion in agricultural products, especially nursery plants and exotic fruits.
Strawberries grow year-round but peak March through June when wildflowers bloom in the valleys. Avocados ripen at different times depending on variety, available most months. Summer brings exotic fruits like dragon fruit and passion fruit. December through March offers amazing citrus including unique varieties like finger limes and Buddha's hand. The region grows more small farm organic produce than anywhere in the nation.
Farms spread from coastal Carlsbad (30 minutes via I-5) to inland Escondido (35 minutes via I-15) and rural East County. Traffic is manageable on weekends outside beach rush times. Year-round perfect weather means any day works for visiting. Many farms are near attractions like Legoland or Safari Park. Some offer ocean views while picking, and several have farm-to-table restaurants on site.
