Avila Valley Barn

The Avila Valley Barn is a place that Evan and I stop at every single time we come down to the Central Coast area no matter what. Avila Valley Barn is a unique farmers market type farm stand offering a wide variety of locally grown produce and tons of other local products to browse. MK's favorite thing to do at the barn is to buy a head of lettuce and feed it to the goats, cows and other animals while EV snaps candid photos. We also never leave the barn without ordering a couple ears of corn and dressing it up with all the fixins'. You will not regret stopping at this not-so-secret spot!
