California Farm Academy

The California Farm Academy opens pathways to help you reach your farming aspirations. Whether you're a seasoned grower aiming to deepen your expertise and expand your operation or stepping into agriculture for the first time, we have courses tailored to your journey.

For those new to the field and interested in launching an agricultural business, we recommend starting with our Explorer Course to lay a strong foundation. Then, you can continue with our full series to cover everything you’ll need to cultivate success—livestock courses are available as an optional addition. Choose the course that best supports where you are and where you want to go in farming.
