Welcome to Bill and Karen Evenden's New Oak Ranch, a family farm committed to growing quality lavender, Ojai Pixie Tangerines, olives and walnuts.

Located in rural southern California, less than 20 miles from the Pacific, the setting is definitely Mediterranean … spectacular mountains, brilliant sunshine, clear blue skies and generous soil. Surrounded by national forest and large ranches, our 24 acres provide perfect pastoral serenity.

Using ecologically responsible farming methods, we cultivate all of our crops with the consumer in mind. We believe that we are merely short-term caretakers of the land and respect the soil, air and water upon which we, and future generations, depend.

Our goal is to produce exceptional lavender products, superior olive oil, sweet and petite Ojai Pixie tangerines and tasty walnuts under the watchful eyes of visitors to our ranch.

We invite you to visit New Oak Ranch for U-Pick Lavender during the lavender season (usually mid-June through end of July) ... to learn more about how we grow, harvest and use lavender and to pick your own beautiful bunch! We also offer farm visits and farm tours. Click on Ranch Activities for more information.
