lies Pescadero, California. Who would have thought that adjacent to the high-tech, fast-paced home of companies like Apple Computer and HP you would find farms.

Real Farms.

You would think that the pressure to sell out to land developers would be unbearable. But a small band of farmers is thriving, thanks to goats, pies, and hard work.

Most of these farms sell there bounty at farm stands and local farmers markets. Harley Farms is a goat dairy and sells their award-winning goat cheese in the farm’s cheese shop.

Many of these farms have their own websites. A google search for “Pescadero farm” turns up these and several others:
