Palm Acres Farm is hidden in a residential area with a long entryway that leads down to its warehouse and office. It is a family business that began in 1947 and strives to provide great service. Gerry Smith, the current owner, and his family still live on the three-acre property that he and the generation before him helped build. The farm started off with the business of raising chickens, but the chickens went away in 1965. Since then, Palm Acres Farm has been a wholesale distributor of chicken eggs (fresh, frozen and hard-boiled) with a range of up to 100 miles. All the eggs that it distributes are from Northern California, and the majority of the eggs are distributed to restaurants and independent markets.
Altadena Drive-In Dairy is located on Route 66 next to Audio Innovations. It's convenient for those needing a quick snack or are in a hurry. It sells bread, snacks, milk, beer for those over 21 and a variety of sodas and juices.
