 Jack Creek Farms is a small 5th generation family farm. Our farm is nestled in the coastal foothills of Central California 6 miles west of Paso Robles. We are located directly off of scenic Highway 46 West, in the heart of San Luis Obispo County wine country. We have RV and tour bus parking with easy highway access.
Folks who visit our farm are invited to take a few moments to reconnect with simpler times past. Stroll through our demonstration gardens and antique farm equipment display. Pick a sunflower, olallieberries or a basket of sun kissed vine ripe tomatoes.
We give free samples of 100% pure juice apple and pomegranite cider. We also offer samples of many different varieties of jams, jellies and honey. We have fresh baked from scratch cookies as well as other baked goods depending upon the season. Discover long forgotten heirloom varieties of fruits and vegetables enjoyed many generations ago. Let the kids plant a sunflower seed in a pot to take home with them. Try your hand at throwing a lasso and rope "Fred" our mascot roping steer. Pitch a horseshoe or sit down and enjoy a leisurely game of checkers. Browse our gift shop or visit with the farms animals. Enjoy a picnic lunch, and best of all, take home a memory!
We use naturally grown farming methods and believe firmly in being good stewards of the land. We provide you with an opportunity to put a face on your farmer, and to learn where your food comes from.
We plant, tend, and harvest by hand which results in a high quality product. Summer produce is picked fresh daily and at its peak of ripeness. We are pleased to offer you fresh and wholesome foods, old-fashioned hospitality, and a true taste of country each time you stop by.

| Special Events: An Old-fashioned Threshing Bee
Jack Creek Farms will be hosting an Old-fashioned Threshing Bee on Saturday, September 6th. Bring the whole family for a fun morning. Step back into a simpler time and connect with the past. Starting with standing wheat, we will bind, stack, thresh, sack, clean and grind the grain into flour the same way it was done in the early 1900s. Visitors may try their hand at grinding wheat using an antique grain grinder. We’ll have free samples of whole wheat bread samples to taste.
We will have many restored antique tractors on display. Visit with the farm animals, view the growing crops (including a large pumpkin patch and gourd field), rope Bailey the dummy steer and sample 100% pure juice pomegranate cider, jams and jellies.
Visitors are invited to come observe the vintage machinery in operation from 10 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. each afternoon. Admission is FREE!
