Hello everyone! This is a friendly reminder that any of these fun places we may visit, we are a guest at. Please treat both businesses and trails with the utmost respect. We here at Hidden California follow the 'Leave no Trace' mantra, meaning whatever you bring with you comes back with you. If you see trash on a trail, please do your part to help remove it.

From their website: Among locals a smile forms on the face when Avila Valley Barn is mentioned. A favorite spot to stop off and buy the freshest fruit and vegetables grown locally, pick up a pie or bakery treat, stop off for lunch from our deli or get an ice cream on the way to Avila Beach.
There are hayrides, farm pets and U-Pick. Avila Valley Barn is truly a place built for the whole family in mind.
Personal Experience: This spot reminds me a lot of Bates Nut Farm in San Diego. It is extremely kid-friendly and a nice little spot to stop by if you are on a long road trip with the family. They have fresh fruit from local farms and homemade ice cream. There are farm animals you can pet and beautiful scenic views. About 5 minutes away is the Sycamore Gardens which I will be creating a page for shortly.
