In this episode of Field Trips, we visit a Southern California avocado grove run by the Lyall Family. With four generations of farming in their roots, the Lyalls are growing more than just avocados—they’re growing a legacy.
From their high-density planting methods to water conservation practices and solar-powered systems, this family is redefining what it means to farm responsibly in California. Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at how they grow premium avocados that are locally grown and sustainably farmed, all while staying deeply connected to the land and each other.
