Bates Nut Farm - Pumpkin Patch, Valley Center, California
History of "Bates Nut Farm"
.....
In 1921, Gilbert and Beatrice Bates moved their nutty family to the beautiful, picturesque oak filled valley of Valley Center, where they purchased the Walnut Slope Ranch. They raised their family of 5 boys, with all sorts of old fashioned farm things like geese, ducks, goats, horses, rabbits, sheep, tractors, and plows. Little did Gilbert know that 80 years later his family farm would provide joy and pleasure for 5 generations of his family, along with thousands of visitors from around the world that take that special trip to the Bates farm each year.
.................
How did the Bates farm became so famous? Perhaps it�s the beautiful setting, the picnic and park areas, the farm zoo, or the casual, down home environment. Or maybe it�s the reminder of simpler times and childhood farm memories. Farm antiques and tools line the walls of the Bates store that is filled with fresh, delicious nuts, candies, dried fruits, chocolates, homemade fudge and gourmet delights. Pick up and sample your way through the Bates store. A sample of our own homemade fudge is a must with over 10 different choices. Our new old-fashioned candy counter will make a chocolate lover�s mouth water. You can�t help but feel like a kid again! Over 25 feet of counterspace is filled with truffles, mammoth turtles, a variety of chocolates and sugar-free candies, homemade fudge and chocolates.
....................
Bates Nut Farm got its start as a walnut farm, but now brings in nuts from all over the world. Pistachios, pecans, cashews, peanuts, pignolias, sunflower seeds and much more can be purchased on the farm. The nuts are raw or roasted, spiced up or unsalted. To ensure quality and freshness, we roast and package our nuts right here on the farm. The Bates family takes pride in providing a quality product at a fair price. It�s part of the tradition.
