While looking through photos this morning, I came across pictures from a trip I took to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Of course, I loved sailing over the turquoise water and taking in the white sandy beaches, but one of my favorite memories includes an excursion we took to a fabulous venue tucked in the foothills of the Sierra de Laguna Mountains, Flora Farm.
Home to the scrumptious restaurant, Flora’s Field Kitchen, Flora Farm is without a doubt a jewel of a place and well worth the few miles of dirt road that one travels to get there. But, make sure that you save your appetite because the food there will not disappoint.
Hungry for brunch? Consider a stack of savory lemon pancakes that melt in your mouth, fresh farm eggs scrambled to perfection with a side of potatoes, or a salad filled with the days harvest of veggies grown on the farm.
And there’s more, The Flora’s Farm Bar has a plethora of libations to choose from, I for one enjoyed this made from scratch Bloody Mary, look closely, a jubilee of vegetables make up its edible garnish.
Flora Farm is no stranger to the concept that people—not just place—make for an environment that creates evangelical visitors, the entire staff there made us feel welcome and ensured that our experience was top notch.
Everywhere I looked there was something to feast my eyes on!
Fresh cut flowers decorate tables, and colorful vegetables, homemade granola, bread and even dog biscuits are available for sale at Flora Grocery.
Flora Farm is a place that has mastered the art of detail. The staff there recognizes that small flourishes leave an indelible mark in the memories of their guests: cloth napkins, chalkboard messages and loads of flowers. Hand-painted signage, jelly jar drinking glasses, and rustic outdoor spaces to dine in.
Just beyond the gates of the restaurant, one can imagine a wedding ceremony held under the strings of lights stretched above a field surrounded by gardens.
Revisiting the photos that I took makes me want to plan a day-long writers retreat there.
What about you, if you were to organize anything from a meal with friends to a special celebration at Flora Farm, what would you plan?
Did I hear writer’s retreat? I am sooo in!
Let’s see how many takers we can get!
All that food looks amazing! I would love to check this place out someday. Everything about sounds glorious!
It truly is amazing, I hope you will visit Flora Farm someday, Carolann, it is so charming and yes, the food is delicious!
How charming! And did I see LEMON pancakes? Sounds like a wonderful place to visit. Oh, and to eat. The food sounds, well, yummy!
Ha! Indeed LEMON pancakes, Carol. I am certain you would love it there!
What a cute find. I love to find off the beaten path places and this place looks divine. (Can you say homemade bloody marys??)
Divine is the perfect word, Rosemond, like you, I enjoy the places that take you off the beaten path and Flora Farm is definitely that.
Oh yes, lovely place to eat and visit and share with our amazing group. And I’m ordering the lemon pancakes for sure. Beth PS Your photos are awesome.
Hi Beth, Maybe you would like to come to the writer’s retreat. 😉
Sounds like a wonderful and enchanting place. My kind of day! If I were to plan anything there it would be a girls weekend complete with a Sunday brunch.
Hi Michelle, Indeed, Flora Farm is the perfect venue for a brunch with friends. Transportation from town is easily arranged too.
I went to Cabo last year and so wanted to go to Flora Farm but we were only there for the weekend and didn’t get a chance. I will definitely go next time. Looks scrumptious!
Hi Rebecca, How wonderful that you have heard of Flora Farm! I look forward to hearing from you when you head back to Cabo and make a plan to go, you are in for such a treat!
