Agriculture in Ventura County is a strange beast. Just when people think they have it figured out, there is a new wrinkle. That was the case when many learned that celery was the #2 crop in the County last year, beating out iconic local crops like lemons, oranges, and avocados. My article for Totally Local VC explains why.

My thanks to Scott and Edgar for their time spent explaining the world of celery to this tree farmer.
