Grapes are grown as one of the main crops, but carrots are also grown in large quantities. Also grown are grain crops, such as wheat and rice, as well as feed crops, like corn, oats and alfalfa. Oranges and other citrus fruits, including grapefruit and lemons, provide almost miniature forests. Larger nut trees, like almonds and walnuts give the landscape a more 'old growth' look to the orchards. Pears, peaches, nectarines and apples thrive in the orchards around Arvin.
Some exotic fruits are also present, such as kiwis.
Peas, beans, potatoes, watermelons, cantaloupes, lettuce, cabbage, and many other vine and row vegetables and melons are also grown.
