Flora Farms, nestled in the foothills of Sierra de la Laguna Mountains in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California, provides tourists with a farm-to-table culinary concept. Surprisingly, Flora Farms is not just a restaurant, it is a place to have a relaxing stay in contact with gorgeous natural settings.
You can even join the relaxing and stress freeing treatments in the Spa and the healthy eating workshop. You cannot miss the interactive cooking lessons, but first you can visit the farm and make a selection of the farm fresh ingredients.
Mexico and its colorful and spicy flavors are the stars of the culinary world in Flora Farms.
Organic Cuisine
Gloria Greene made history in Los Cabos by opening its first organic restaurant, “Café Flora”. Along with her husband Patrick, they founded a farm in 1996 to supply the restaurant with their own organic ingredients.
They even created a farmer´s market that offered meals and was venue for different events, which caught the attention of exclusive executive chefs in the region.
The original Café Flora might not be there anymore, but on its place, even TripAdvisor users such as the one below can confirm there is an eclectic oasis that embodies its ancestor´s spirit and takes Los Cabos gastronomical experience to a whole different level:
A long winding bumpy sand road, in the desert, leads to an oasis of lush green, organic farm and beautiful flowers!! Free parking leads you to eclectic shops, then browse the beautiful rows of organic vegetables, beautiful flowers, then buy them in their store. Cooking classes available, and farm-to-table restaurant is always popular! Many photo ops here! We have been to Los Cabos 3x and we come here every time! March, 2019. TripAdvisor user: K2128BIjanetb

Flora´s Farms cultivates and weeds all its crops by hand. Overall, they plant over 100 varieties every year among fruits, vegetables and herbs. Their vision of providing the healthiest food to our plates took them to ranch so they could provide their kitchens with high quality, humanely-raised chicken, eggs and, one of their most known ingredients, pork.

The 5 star experience at Flora Farms started with delicious freshly baked arugula pizza, followed by farm to table salads, aged Spanish ham and delicious pappardelle/zucchini pasta capped off with desert of decadent flan and a slice of chocolate cake. It was truly a gourmandizing experience for the four of us. Do yourself a favor and always include Flora Farm in your restaurant itinerary. You won’t regret it. April, 2019.

Our friends raved about Flora Farms before our visit. I wasn’t convinced. Now, I am! We spent our last day of vacation at Flora Farms with our 12 and 9-year-old son and daughter. We arrived at 10:15 for a 10:30 cooking class where we learned to cook tamales, guacamole, salsa, and a salad. We also had a tour of the farm and ate our lunch in a community cooking class! It was a FANTASTIC experience! I highly recommend Flora Farms during your visit to Cabo! April, 2019. TripAdvisor user: LesleyMoP
