About Nona’s Farms

Nona’s Farms and Educational Center is
located in the coastal community of Cardiff, California. The farm grows
and sustainably harvests organic vegetables, herbs and flowers. 
Nona’s Farms gardening methods have been passed down four generations from
my family’s great grandmother, Nona who produced food for the family
during the summer then stored additional crops for the
winter. Through-out the years Nona’s has continued to expand its
gardening knowledge to keep current with the times.Today, Nona’s practices sustainable organic gardening using the proper amendments and other important considerations like San Diego’s gardening zone, ecology and even some astronomy.  The farms owners have a

passion for teaching others how live locally and sustainably and

offer classes that teach individuals everything from planting

with seedlings and raising chickens to cooking and canning to support

happy and healthy friends and
families.
