What Grows on The Farm?

The CA State Fair Farm grows over 90 varieties of fruits and vegetables all year long from cotton, kiwi, squash, eggplant, chili peppers, corn and melons to pumpkins.

Nearly 4,000 students annually experience what it takes to plant, maintain and manage a farm during Spring/Fall Farm Tours.

The California State Fair Farm is a working farm that grows tons of produce which is donated to the local Food Banks.
