Avila Valley Barn

NEAR AVILA BEACH - Nearly a quarter of century ago, the Avila Valley Barn sold it's first produce. It was a humble barn that worked because customers picked the fruit themselves. Twenty-four years later, the barn is a thriving business filled with laughter and smiles.

Owners of the barn say that it grew because, simply, one thing led to another. They had left over berries, so the created a bakery to make fruit pies. They had a pluthera of children visiting, so they brought in dwarfed animals for them to feed. Most recently, a Sweet Shoppe has sprung to life, offering up tasty ice cream, fudge and candy.

The Avila Valley Barn operates all year around but it really comes life in Fall. They have a massive pumkin patch and hayrides to celebrate the season in full.
