You can probably grow most any winter cover crop in central California.

Here is a blend from Peaceful Valley:

Another from LA Hearne:

Crimson Clover is kind of pricy, but it should do well in your climate
for a winter cover crop.

A guide from UCDavis with fairly wide coverage of cover crop species
used in California:
