Jalama Beach Days & Farm Fresh Eats

If you ever find yourself in the Southern Central Coast of California, I highly recommend a peek at Jalama Beach. The beach is good for surfers, families, camping (park fees apply) and all around hanging out. Just a few miles south of Lompoc off Highway 1, Jalama Road - which takes you out to the beach, winds through some beautiful ranch and farm land on the way out to the coast.

If you're traveling thru on a weekend between June and November, make sure to stop at the Jalama Road Family Farmstand. Good people selling some of their delicious farm fresh produce, beans, eggs, honey, jams and more. A very cool operation, partially run by the Malloy family - who readers may recall I'm a big fan of - there isn't a cashier or a "sales associate". You pay by the honor system, placing cash in a little lock box and noting what you purchased on a note pad.
