If half of Half Moon Bay's heart is oceanfront living, the other half is agriculture, which means visitors have unlimited access to organic edible delights- -not to mention more flowers than you'd find at the annual Rose Bowl Parade.
Beyond plucking up deals from roadside stands selling locally grown artichokes, fava beans, peas, leeks, pumpkins, flowers, and more, visitors can indulge all the senses by visiting farms and nurseries. Gather fresh produce within a historic barn at Andreotti Family Farm (650-726-9151). Drop by Daylight Farms to browse vegetables, herbs, and flowers- -including their vast dahlia garden (seasonal). Take the kids to feed baby ducks, see majestic peacocks and pick their own strawberries.
Or embark on a car cruise to the stunning Yerba Buena Nursery, which specializes in native California plants and ferns and often offers tea service.
Whatever you do, the delectable offerings are bound to build your appetite. Fortunately, you can taste region's farm-fresh bounty in local restaurants, too.
