Fun Facts: Newberry Springs, California
- Located about 20 miles west of Barstow, Newberry Springs is a small desert community with a population under 3,000.
- Thanks to a steady underground water supply and consistent climate, it is known for farming—and hosts an annual Pistachio Festival each November.
- The cult-classic film Bagdad Cafe was shot here at the Sidewinder Cafe, which was renamed Bagdad Café after the 1987 movie. Now a tourist attraction, it still welcomes visitors from around the world.
