The Cal Poly Fruit and Crops Unit is a teaching orchard at California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo that offers pick-your-own to the public, typically on Saturdays (and occasional Wednesdays) when crops are ripe.

Availability is weather- and crop-dependent, so calling ahead is recommended.
