In the car between wineries in Temecula, I was flipping through the first issue of edible San Diego magazine (excellent publication!). I saw an ad for RC Livestock and remember seeing their name on the menu at The Linkery. Might as well stop by... the visit turned out to be much more interesting than I expected.

No CSA, no farmers markets. Dave Barnes is focused on restaurants only. Dave has been doing this for a long time and shares his experience with us in this 25 minute video tour of his farm.

Leah Devita of the Tierra Miguel Foundation farm tells us about what they grow, their history, and a meadow that her finance planted for her for their upcoming wedding : - )

Take a drive up the 15 about 90 miles north of us near Hemet and you can find Phil and Juany Noble at Sage Mountain Farm. When Phil talks about the world of farming, he doesn't beat around the bush. Enjoy the video tour below.

You can get in touch with Sage Mountain Farms at: 40630 Sage Road, Hemet, CA 92544, tel: 951-767-1016, sagemountainfarm@hughes.net

Macadamia nuts that is. Jim Russell grows thousands of pounds of these and is president of the California Macadamia Society, so he knows a lot about what's going on in the world of macadamia. Video tour below... The California Farm Bureau wrote an article about him too.
