I visited yet another farm thanks to Camino, and it was just as majestic as the last. Annabelle rents a small plot from Star Route farms up in Bolinas, a witchy town in the the fog of Marin. Star Route Farms is an amazing operation using the organization of a corporation to keep their small plot efficient and productive. They allow the river to flood their plains which restores nutrients from the river back to the farmland - waaayyy smarter than building levee's.
La Tocera is a small farm that grows everything from heirloom onions to purple basil, even their weeds are edible (I was able to try a young radish). We toured the farms and then grubbed on a few snacks provided by Annabelle and us.
