Underwood Family Farms is a hands-on agricultural escape, where open fields, fresh produce, and family energy come together in a way that feels both lively and grounded.
Located off Tierra Rejada Road in Moorpark, about an hour outside Los Angeles and surrounded by rolling farmland and wide-open skies, this working farm operates with a seasonal, ever-changing rhythm.

What you should know about Underwood Family Farms.
Underwood Family Farms is best known for interactive farming, offering a pick-your-own experience that shifts with the seasons.
Visitors can walk the fields and harvest fruits and vegetables directly, strawberries, corn, pumpkins, depending on the time of year, turning a simple visit into something tactile and participatory. What defines Underwood isn't just agriculture, it's immersion, the ability to engage with the process. Seasonal festivals, especially in the fall, expand the experience with hayrides, animal encounters, and family-focused activities that layer entertainment onto the farm's core identity. It's both educational and experiential.
How to fold Underwood Family Farms into your trip.
Underwood Family Farms works as a half-day or full-day outing, something you plan around.
Arrive in the morning to beat the heat and get the best selection in the fields, and come prepared to move, walk, carry, and explore. This is not a quick stop, it's an experience that builds as you move through it. Pair it with a scenic drive through Ventura County or nearby stops, but allow the farm to anchor your time. Underwood doesn't try to replicate the city, it pulls you out of it, offering a version of the day that feels slower, more physical, and unexpectedly refreshing.
