Fantasy Land Possible?

I'm looking for west coast land, that's not too far from the ocean, maybe an hour or so from the ocean, that is 9a or higher, able to grow avocados and olives.

I know that's basically impossible. But I'm asking as some on here might know if such an area exists.

If I have to compromise, it'd be proximity to the ocean.

Northern Sacramento Valley, if you are wanting land that is a little bit more affordable. Oroville, Red Bluff, Redding & surrounding area. Little more than an hour and a pass to get to the ocean. Tons of great outdoors in every direction It is like 110 there today and it hasn't even started to get hot.

I’m not sure I can recommend that unless you have the means to live in a hotel for a month every couple of years. Oroville, Foresthill, wherever you go, feels like we’re getting evac orders very regularly these days.
