  Bates Nut Farm is a family-owned, 100-acre working farm nestled in the scenic hills of Valley Center, California — about 40 miles north of San Diego.

The farm's outdoor grounds serve as a distinctive backdrop for private events, including weddings, corporate gatherings, birthday celebrations, fundraisers, family reunions, and picnics. The ceremony area is shaded by rows of mature mulberry trees, while the adjacent garden stage area — framed by lush green hedges and flowering plants — accommodates receptions and larger gatherings.
