Harmony is an unincorporated community located in San Luis Obispo County, California. It is home to the former Harmony Valley Creamery, a dairy cooperative that closed in 1955. It lies north of Cayucos and south of Cambria on SR 1, near the junction with SR 46. History The town of Harmony began as a dairy settlement in the late 19th century started by Swiss immigrants living near the Italian border.
