Villa del Sol Sweet Cherry Farms
Villa del Sol is a 25 acre working cherry farm started by the Shafer family in 1999.
Largest you-pick cherry orchard in Southern California with over 3,600 trees!
We are located at the intersection of Elizabeth Lake Road and Godde Hill Road in the lovely Leona Valley, California.
We specifically chose this location for many reasons.
For optimum fruit taste and texture, terrain and climate are very important.
The orchard cascades down a south facing slope that allows the sunshine to gently warm the ground, preventing freezing of the delicate fruit in the spring.
Warm air is filtered through the trees which is needed for an optimum crop.
