Cuesta Linda is a two acre hilltop garden in one of the most favorable palm growing climates in So. California. Seven miles from the ocean, it straddles a line that separates the cool coastal ocean influence from the hot/cold inland extremes. The soil is well draining and the area was once prime citrus and avocado groves.
