2008-03-20 14:04:18   I went here on class field trip with POM 10 in winter 06. They had a ton of different trees (not just olives), and some of them were pretty interesting hybrids that you won't find anywhere else. At the time, all that was ripe was citrus, so that's all I got to pick. I think they used to have an open house every fall when the public could come and pick other things that were ripe. I don't know if that still takes place. —RyanCoates
