Many types of food items were produced at Mission San Juan Capistrano: Olives were grown, to be pressed into olive oil. Grapes were grown to to made into sacramental wine. The first planting of the 'Mission grape' occurred here, and the first wine (1783) produced in Alta California happened at Mission San Juan Capistrano. Grape plant cuttings from here were sent to other missions and subsequently spread throughout California. Barley was raised, as was corn and wheat for food. Grains were ground by stone into necessary flours. Primarily goats and sheep were raised (7,000) as were cattle (2,500), but fewer mules and horses (200)--the recorded herd numbers in 1790. Some livestock would have also provided a food source, but also would have provided items such as candles and soap (tallow), or produced leather products, or wool for the weaving of clothing and blankets.
They are very famous for their grapes since they made wine, but had a small garden outside the living areas for vegetables such as cabbages to eat
