From cattle herds to rows of pines on Rancho San Julian
Harold Poett, a descendant of Jose de la Guerra, runs a five acre Monterey Pine Christmas tree farm on Rancho San Julian Drive near Lompoc. He planted 2500 pines in 1971 and now sells trees by the foot for a dollar plus tax. The operation faces pruning demands, aphid and deer challenges, and yearly plantings, with 4,000 trees from two years prior culled for maturation delays.
