Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Claremont, CA

Chino

Hey There Honey sells jarred honey out of Chino, in San Bernardino County's Inland Empire dairy and agriculture belt.

Pomona

Run by Cal Poly Pomona's Huntley College of Agriculture, this Kellogg Ranch store sells fresh produce grown by students, fresh-squeezed CPP orange juice, and campus-made items like Nonna's Meatball Mix, open daily 10am-6pm. Curbside pickup runs through orderfarmstore.com, and the attached nursery sells plants separately.

A pumpkin patch fundraiser tied to a youth mentorship organization at 17939 Gale Avenue in the City of Industry area. Current operating status wasn't verifiable online — this reads as a community-run seasonal lot rather than a commercial farm.

Brea

Enchanted Pumpkin Patch is a seasonal pumpkin patch on North State College Boulevard in Brea, in the pattern of the pop-up lot patches common across Orange County each October. No confirmed details on hours, activities, or hayride offerings beyond the pumpkin sales.

Placentia

A seasonal pumpkin patch at 300 East Yorba Linda Boulevard in Placentia, typical of the pop-up patches that open across Orange County parking lots each October. No independent website or listing turned up beyond the address itself, so confirm current operating status before planning a visit.

Orange

Family entertainment park inside Orange's Irvine Regional Park, running since 1904. The narrow-gauge train loops past picnic areas and oak groves, with pony rides, paddle boats, bike rentals, and access to the free Orange County Zoo next door. Fall brings a seasonal pumpkin patch alongside the regular rides, and the railroad hosts school field trips and birthday parties year-round. Open daily from 10am.

Orange

Irvine Ranch Outdoor Education Center sits inside Irvine Regional Park in Orange, running outdoor science and nature-education programs mostly for school field trips rather than public farm visits. Specific program details and contact information weren't confirmed online.

Jurupa Valley

Unity Farm is on Crestmore Road in Jurupa Valley, a Riverside County community that still holds small-acreage farms and horse properties even as suburban growth presses in from Riverside and Ontario.

Santa Ana

Backyard Bees produces Orange County honey that's gravity strained and unheated, keeping its natural aroma and flavor intact, alongside beeswax skin care products made from the same hives. The operation also runs pesticide-free bee removal and relocation for homes and businesses, plus hive adoptions, garden tours, and honey house tours for anyone curious how it's made.

Whittier

This seasonal lot on Whittier Blvd sells pumpkins in October and switches to cut Christmas trees for the holidays, a common pairing for stands in the Whittier area of Los Angeles County.

Riverside

Cali-Dragon Farm and Orchard is on De Anza Avenue in Riverside, a city built on the citrus industry that once made this part of Southern California famous. The name points toward dragon fruit, a crop small Inland Empire growers have taken up in recent years, though the farm's current offerings aren't listed online.

Santa Ana

The Pumpkin Factory runs a seasonal pumpkin patch in the parking area of Westfield MainPlace Mall in Santa Ana, one of several mall-lot patches that pop up across Orange County each October. No confirmed listing details this location's specific hours or activities.

This listing covers Knott's Scary Farm, the annual Halloween haunt held at Knott's Berry Farm amusement park in Buena Park each fall, not a working farm. Expect haunted mazes, scare zones, and after-dark scares layered onto the historic theme park on select nights through Halloween.

Llano

Brian Enterprises operates on Largo Vista Rd in Llano, a small high-desert community in northern Los Angeles County along the Antelope Valley.

Llano

Brian Ranch is a u-pick orchard built around a private airstrip in the high desert near Llano, where visitors pick apples, apricots, grapes, nectarines, peaches, pears, plums, pumpkins, and sour cherries as each comes into season. Pilots need permission before landing at the adjoining airfield, a quirk that makes this one of the more unusual orchards in Los Angeles County.

Irvine

This is UC Agriculture and Natural Resources' South Coast Research and Extension Center, a roughly 200-acre research farm in Irvine established in 1956. One of nine UC ANR field stations statewide, it runs agricultural and horticultural research trials, demonstration gardens, and Orange County's UC Cooperative Extension programs for growers and the public.

Pasadena

Pasadena Pumpkin Patch operates seasonally on North Lake Avenue, in Pasadena's Lake Avenue shopping corridor east of the Rose Bowl. No public listing confirms this lot's specific hours, activities, or operating dates.

Garden Grove

The Jack O'Lantern Jamboree is a seasonal pumpkin event in Garden Grove, one of the October community pop-ups Orange County cities and churches host each fall on park grounds and parking lots.

Llano

Rancho Lorena has operated as a registered California farm corporation since 1977, out in the high desert of Llano along 165th Street East. The draw is u-pick stone fruit — nectarines, peaches, and plums — grown in the Antelope Valley's dry heat, which concentrates sugar in tree fruit better than coastal climates.

Ridgedale Orchard & Vineyard is off Ridgedale Drive in Riverside County, in the 92570 zip shared by Perris and Winchester near the edge of Temecula Valley wine country. Small orchard-vineyard operations in this stretch typically pair fruit trees with a few acres of wine grapes.

Costa Mesa

Hana Field is Tanaka Farms' Costa Mesa satellite, hana means flower in Japanese, and it's a separate stop from the main Tanaka Farms property in Irvine, ten minutes away. Fields of sunflowers, zinnias, and lavender open for u-pick through spring and summer, with a pumpkin patch taking over in fall. Visits are walk-up only, cashless, with no reservations needed.

San Bernardino

Northwest Christmas Trees and Pumpkins is listed on Waterman Avenue in San Bernardino, running the two-season model common to Southern California tree lots: pumpkins in October, cut Christmas trees in December. No working website or social page turned up in research, so current pricing and hours could not be confirmed.

Cerritos

"Fallstivities" pumpkin patch set up in the Sears parking lot at Los Cerritos Center mall each October. Pumpkins and decorating kits are for sale alongside inflatable jumpers, rock climbing, pumpkin painting, and trick-or-treating on the last day of the run.

Corona Pumpkin Farm at CJ's Ranch sits on Gavilan Road in the Perris area of Riverside County, despite the Corona name. No hours, activities, or pricing are published online for this seasonal pumpkin patch; call ahead before visiting.

Altadena

Klausesbees is a small Altadena honey operation selling raw, unfiltered wildflower honey harvested from Angeles Crest, Cow Hill, and low-desert bee yards. Seasonal varietals include Black Sage and Wooly Blue Curl, alongside raw honeycomb, bee pollen, beeswax, propolis, and honey soap. There's no storefront — find them at the Monrovia Family Festival on Friday evenings or the La Cañada Farmers' Market on Saturday mornings, cash, check, Venmo, or PayPal accepted.

Downey

Honey Pacifica has moved beehives across Southern California apiaries since 1979, when Nick Poto — known around the neighborhood as the Midnight Beekeeper — turned a science-fair hobby into a family business while working an aerospace day job. His wife Jean sold the first jars from a roadside stand; the honey now ships raw and unfiltered from a Downey warehouse to Whole Foods, Bristol Farms, and farmers markets across the region.

Al-Salam Farms sits along Whittier Boulevard in the 90023 ZIP code on Los Angeles's Eastside, an industrial and residential corridor rather than open farmland. 'Al-Salam' is Arabic for 'the peace,' one of the few outward clues to what this urban-pocket operation raises or grows.

Los Angeles

T & A Farms is listed on Cliff Drive in the Cypress Park/Elysian Valley area of Los Angeles, along the stretch of the LA River near Rio de Los Angeles State Park. Small growing operations in this pocket of the city sit close to the river's restored riparian corridor.
