Love Apple Farms

Love Apple Farms is only open to registered students and those who have signed up for a farm tour.  We are located in the Santa Cruz mountains (coastal central California).  Click here for a map to our location.

We originally became known for growing 100 varieties of heirloom tomatoes each year. The farm is now the exclusive kitchen garden for world-renowned Manresa Restaurant (Los Gatos, California).

Cynthia Sandberg, owner and farmer, uses biodynamic and organic techniques to grow over 300 different cultivars of fruit, vegetables, herbs and edible flowers for the restaurant.  Love Apple Farms is honored to be highlighted in the 2010 San Francisco Michelin Guide, under the Manresa Restaurant entry.  Cynthia can be contacted by emailing her at loveapplefarms@gmail.com

The farm and restaurant are a mere fifteen minutes apart, nestled half way between San Francisco and Monterey. No restaurant can become one of the finest in the land without an incredible amount of struggle and hard work. So too, struggles the farm, striving to grow the best produce possible.
