About Mellano Farm Stand

Mellano Farm Stand is a family-owned working farm in Oceanside, California, where visitors pick fresh produce and flowers directly from the fields. Seasonal u-pick activities include strawberries and sunflowers. Weekend tractor rides transport guests through the farm to view crops and landscapes. The stand sells farm-fresh flowers and produce, and weekly pre-packed bounty boxes deliver seasonal items selected from current harvests, introducing families to new fruits and vegetables. The farm hosts seasonal festivals featuring outside vendors, live music, and crafts. Special events include a spring flower field, a pumpkin patch with corn maze, farm camp, and educational classes for children. A Mother's Day festival offers strawberry u-pick, tractor rides, face-painting, and a build-your-own-bouquet station. The farm stand operates Thursday through Sunday, with weekday visits by appointment.
