California's Small Farms
Southern California is home to some of the most diverse, and most delicious, foods in the world. This celebration of family-run farms takes us across the region, visiting those who provide us with local food, from pies to cheese and peaches to basil.
The Local Table:
California grows the best peaches in America. (You heard us, Georgia.) Host Katherine Spiers visited a fruit farm in Dinuba and then learned how to make a peach salad from Chef Suzanne Tracht.
California's Small Farms:
These happy goats make some of the best cheese in California -- and you'll never guess their favorite treat.
California's Small Farms:
Turns out coffee can grow, quite successfully, in California.
California's Small Farms:

California's Small Farms:
Twenty-five years ago, Alice Waters was raiding Andrea Crawford's lettuce patch for Chez Panisse salads. These days, Crawford's selling 20,000 pounds of oregano a year to Chipotle.
California's Small Farms:
