  1. Farmers Markets: Oliver Woolley's pork is a hit in Santa Monica

    Locally raised pork is rare in Southern California, but in a hilly grapefruit grove north of San Diego, fenced to exclude mountain lions, 14 tasty piglets luxuriate, fattening for sale at the Santa Monica farmers market. They're the dream or folly of Oliver Woolley, who raises heritage pigs.

  2. Farmers Markets: Odd-looking cherimoya is a sublime find

    — The cherimoya is a peculiar-looking, almost intimidating fruit — "like a pre-Columbian jade pine cone or the finial for a giant Inca four-poster bed," in Elizabeth Schneider's memorable words. But at its best it tastes sublime, with sweet, juicy, flan-like flesh and rich flavor blending papaya, banana and pineapple. Mark Twain famously called it "the most delicious fruit known to men," and if taste were all that counted, cherimoyas might outsell apples.

  4. Farmers Markets: Irvine's Saturday farmers market is O.C.'s sweet spot

    The Irvine Saturday farmers market is the largest and best in Orange County, but it's a mixed bag. It has some worthy local small farmers who come in person, along with more commercial farms, and even a few who have been sanctioned previously for cheating by agricultural authorities or other managers.

  5. Farmers Markets: Paso Gold rides the olive oil boom

    As part of a great California olive oil boom, now at least a dozen olive oil vendors are selling at local farmers markets, up from only a couple a decade ago. Most offer a good product, but there are few who, like Michael O'Brien of <a href="http://www.oliveoilfarmer.com/">Paso Gold</a>, provide local, fresh, high-quality, certified organic oil, sold by the farmer himself in the agricultural section of the market.

  6. Moraga Vineyards in Bel Air for sale

    If I had a spare $29.5 million or so lying around, I&rsquo;d definitely be in the market for the <a href="http://www.moragavineyards.com/tour.php">Moraga Vineyards</a> estate in Bel Air, which is now up for sale. You know those rows of vines you see across the 405 as you ride the tram up to the <a href="http://www.getty.edu/">Getty Museum</a>? That&rsquo;s it.

  7. O Tannenbaum, how sustainable are thy branches?

    Your recycling bin is filled twice as high as your garbage bin. You buy carbon offsets to make up for the climate havoc caused by your jet-setting ways. You would no more be caught buying non-organic produce than taking it home in a plastic bag from the checkout counter.

  8. Back to the wild in Point Reyes

    If you want to know why environmentalism has so little political traction these days, you need to go no further than Point Reyes, Calif. The beautiful Point Reyes National Seashore just north of San Francisco may be the most interesting national parkland in the country. It combines designated wilderness with operating ranches and dairy farms, and it is now embroiled in an utterly manufactured controversy.

  10. Winter Wine Trails

    If the recent spate of below average temps has you singing the winter blues in Los Angeles, it is time to leave the city behind and hit the open road. A weekend in the country exploring vast vino landcapes is just what the doctor ordered.

  11. Southern California Close-Up: Santa Barbara County wine country

    About 20 miles beyond the red-tile roofs of downtown Santa Barbara, it begins: the rolling blond hills that go indecently green in spring, the massive estates and miniature horses, the sprawling vineyards and "Sideways" scenery, the dude ranch with 10,000 acres, the old stagecoach stop with boar on the menu and bikers in the parking lot ....

  12. SoCal Close-Ups: San Diego's North County more than just a pretty face

    Maybe you've always suspected that there was more to San Diego's North County than beach towns, rolling hills, expat giraffes and a walled kingdom of brightly colored plastic. But frankly, they had me at beach towns.
