A new development, dubbed “The Farm,” is proposed for the Carpinteria bluffs. Despite the name, it will not host fields of corn or cows, but, instead, 191 for-sale homes.
Developers will host a public open house on April 9, marking the first opportunity for community members to weigh in.
The 27-acre site is located at 5885 Carpinteria Avenue , sitting beside the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and the Seal Sanctuary — land valued for its grassy open space, native habitat, wildflowers, and trails. It’s currently home to the Tee Time driving range and a small organic farm.
