Andreotti Family Farms, established in 1926, offers visitors a quintessential fall experience with its You-Pick Sunflower Field, the only one of its kind in Northern California. Giant sunflowers stretch toward the sky, creating a vibrant flower forest nestled between a charming pumpkin patch and a corn field, all with the soothing backdrop of the sea. The pumpkin patch showcases antique trucks, tractors, and even a 1957 GMC Trolley, making it a favorite for photo enthusiasts. Visitors can explore a wide variety of pumpkins, edible squash, and gourds, all grown on-site. The farm also hosts private events, including farm tours, school field trips, and weddings.
Rooted in family history, the farm began in the 1920s when the Andreotti family cultivated artichokes brought from Italy. Today, Frank Andreotti, a third-generation farmer, continues the legacy, passionately expanding their produce offerings to include kale, lettuce, potatoes, and more. Known for his love of trucks and tractors, Frank oversees the farm’s operations, ensuring fresh, seasonal produce is always available. Each year, they add new vegetable varietals, keeping the farm’s offerings exciting and ever-evolving.
