San Jose enjoys a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers around 82°F and cool, wet winters at 42°F. The Santa Clara Valley's alluvial soil, once called the 'Valley of Heart's Delight,' remains incredibly fertile. With 257 sunny days and natural protection from surrounding mountains, the growing season extends nearly year-round.
Before becoming Silicon Valley, this was the world's largest fruit-producing region, with apricot, cherry, and prune orchards covering the valley. The area pioneered fruit canning and drying industries. Today's remaining farms preserve this agricultural heritage while adapting to serve tech workers seeking authentic farm experiences and organic produce.
Cherry season begins in May when Stanford graduation happens, followed by apricots in June. Summer brings excellent tomatoes, peppers, and beans. Apple season runs September through November with heirloom varieties from historic orchards. Winter offers Asian vegetables and citrus. Many farms grow specialty crops for the area's diverse population, including Asian pears and persimmons.
Farms are found in South County near Gilroy (30 minutes via US-101), the Santa Cruz Mountains (45 minutes via Highway 17), and Half Moon Bay (45 minutes via Highway 92). Weekend traffic can be heavy on Highway 17 and 92. Coastal farms may have fog while inland areas are sunny. Many combine well with beach trips or redwood hikes. Some offer 'programmer hours' with evening picking options.
