Camarillo, CA

Camarillo, CA by Martha Whelchel

This is a postcard from Camarillo, CA. It is a small farm town between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. We have the Pacific Ocean on one side of the 101 freeway and mountains on the other. Farming is our main industry. We grow lemons, avocados, strawberries, lettuce, and tomatoes–everything for a good salad. We are the home of U.C. Channel Islands. We have an airport the U.S. Air Force left us after WWII, so there are lots of small plane activities here. It is a good place to live and raise children. Martha Whelchel
