Y
olo County a beautiful place to live and work as any of us
who live and work here well know but it is also a beautifulplace to visit. An essential element of its beauty is the rich agri-cultural setting.
Yolo County is one of the most diverse farming regions in the nation,nd the variety of crops grown here throughout the year makes for a kind
f natural spectacle. Think of the vineyards, fields and orchards where we
roduce wine grapes, rice, a variety of grains, almonds and walnuts,
lives, tomatoes like no one else on Earth, and, of course, our signature
unflowers. In late spring into early summer, those majestic bright yellow
lossoms are a huge draw for residents and visitors alike.
Agriculture of course is central to our economy. Yolo County crops are
xported to nearly 100 countries around the world, generating close to a
illion dollars of commerce. This robust trade is vitally important to our
ocal economies, a fact recognized by recently revamped countywide reg-
lations governing agricultural and ag-tourism activities.
Yolo County is one of the nations leaders in the highly technical world
f seed research and development, continuing a long tradition of
esearch and innovation in agriculture. Besides major corporations
working here like HM Clause and Monsanto, we also claim the Robert

ble institution is home to widely renowned departments of viticulture
and enology as well as food science and technology, and houses the o
LEED platinum winery, brewery and food processing facilities in the
world.
Yolo County is the home of leading nonprofits such as the Center f
Land-Based Learning dedicated to creating the next generation of
farmers through its California Farm Academy and Yolo Farm to Fo a leader in expanding local school nutrition and education program
As impressive as all of that sounds, whats best is bringing some of
goodness home for the family. We have wonderful farmers markets in
Woodland, West Sacramento and most famously in Davis. Consisten
recognized as one of the best in the country, the Davis Farmers Mark
celebrating its 41th anniversary year in 2017. CLBL is also creating a
series of urban farms in West Sacramento and supporting a strip of la
to supply The Barn there.
Yolo County is home to Farm Fresh To You (by Capay Organic), on
the largest Community Supported Agriculture services in Northern C
fornia; they even have a presence in San Franciscos Ferry Building, t
Taj Mahal of Bay Area markets. Other CSA producers include Full Be
Farm, River Dog Farm and Good Humus Produce. You can also shop
fresh produce from small family farms via the Capay Valley Farm Sho

... and a world awayLets be honest: Much of what makes Davis a wonderful place to visit and to live is owed to UC Davis, the largest campus in the Univer-ity of California system.
Founded in 1905, with the first students admitted in 1908, UCD begans the University of Californias farm school. And agriculture is still a
arge focus for the campus. In fact, UCD ranks No. 2 in the world foreaching and research of agriculture and forestry by QS World Univer-ity 2017 Rankings.
UCDs School of Veterinary Medicine, which sees more than 48,000
nimal patients each year, was ranked No. 1 in the country in 2016 byU.S. News & World Report, and No. 1 in the world by QS. And the whole
niversity itself can brag about being 10th among the nations publicniversities in U.S. News & World Reports most recent rankings.
But UCD is much more than a bunch of statistics. With annual events
like Picnic Day and the Whole Earth Festival, Division I athletics, thrart museums, a public art walking tour, departments of music and
theater and dance performances at the world-class Mondavi Center, a 100-acre Arborteum with a 3.5-mile loop path for walking or bikin
there are many reasons to visit UCD.The university also hosts many lecture series for the public thing
like Walking in the Woods with Chemistry, an exhibit in UCDsArboretum by a chemistry professor and a plant biology professor,exploring such plant chemistry mysteries as: What makes up the flavof your wine? How can a plant cure cancer? Whats the smell in perfu

Opening last November,
he brand-new Manetti
hrem Museum of Art is
he latest homage to the
ine arts at UC Davis. Its a
opular destination, with
more than 30,000 people
isiting the intimate
museum in its first six
months.
The museum is named
or its founding donors,
an Shrem, founder of Clos
Pegase winery in the NapaValley, and his wife, arts
atron Maria Manetti
hrem, who made the
allery possible with a $10
million gift to the univer-
ity in 2011.
For decades, artists
have come to UCD because
the place itself generatednew means of expression
and collaboration. The
first exhibit, Out Our
Way, presented 240 paint-
ings, sculptures, drawings
and prints from 12 faculty
who became prominent
well beyond the campus,
including Wayne Thie-
baud, Robert Arneson,
William T. Wiley and Roy
De Forest.
Exhibits runningthrough the end of June
include Sadie Barnettes
Dear 1968,... which
comes from political
histories using her family
photographs, recent draw-
ings and selections from
the 500-page file that the
FBI amassed after herfather joined the Black
Panther Party in 1968.
Also until June 30,
visitors can see from this
point forward, an inter-
disciplinary graduate
exhibition that showcases
the work and research of
students across disciplines
at UCD, including art
studio, design, creative
writing, art history,
dramatic arts, history andmusic.
Exhibits for the latter
part of the summer and
fall have not been
announced yet.
The museum, a $30
million project, is also an
artistic statement itself
conceived as a model for anew kind of art museum,one that defines itself as a
constantly evolving publicevent, encouragingpersonal encounters andproviding informal as well
as formal learning opp

WOODLAND One of
he hidden treasures of
Yolo County, the California
Agriculture Museum can
e found just off Interstate
and County Road 102
Pole Line Road) in
Woodland. The museum
ffers one of the worlds
argest collections of
ntique tractors and other
arm equipment.
Woodland farmers Fred
Heidrick Sr. and his
rother Joe collected and
estored farm equipment
hat goes back to horse-
rawn days, extends
hrough steam-drivenehicles and moves on to
modern tractors. Their
uge collection was moved
o 1962 Hays Lane, and
he family-operated
Heidrick Ag History
Center opened in 1997.
Over time, the operation
rew and moved from
amily ownership to the
management of The
Heidrick Museum
Foundation. In 2015, the
ame of the museum was
hanged to The California
Agriculture Museum to
etter express how fully
he collection covers the
istory of agriculture in
California. More than
40,000 people toured the
museum in 2016.
The collection now fills
two large halls with
100,000 square feet of
exhibits, ranging from an
interactive childrens area
through huge vehicles
that look more like train
engines than tractors.
One of the largest is the
Best Steam Traction
Engine that has a 940-
gallon water tank and
weighs 17 tons.
We have everything
from giant steam-driven
tractors to belt-driven and
diesel-burning metal wheel
tractors that were part of
the evolution of farming in
California, says Lorili
Ostman, the museums
executive director.
Threshers, reapers,
binders and other farm
equipment labeled with
details about what the
equipment was used for
give insights into the ways
that the equipment mecha-
nized the work of farmers
and allowed them to grow
crops to feed the country.
Cell-phone tours that tell
tales, myths and facts
about the equipment and
early pioneers are available
in English or Spanish.
Moving from the main
museum that houses most
of the tractors and largest
equipment to the 45,000-
square-foot east hall,
visitors will see a crop
duster airplane, buses from
the 1920s, a collection of
vintage road and advertis-
ing signs, and even awooden outhouse that
parents may have toexplain to their kids.
The museum alsohouses one of the twohorse-drawn cable cars
that carried passengersfrom the train depot
downtown to the availahotels in Woodland
beginning in 1887.Admission to the
museum is $10 for aduwith discounts for
seniors, students,military and children.The Heidrick family is
actively involved with tmuseum with Randy
Lucchesi, a grandson oFred Heidrick Sr.,
currently serving aspresident of the board.
Lucchesi loves the wthe museum shows the
Dont tell me I cant!attitude of California fa
ers like his grandfatherAnother grandchild, LWeiking, said, Growin
up, I didnt really knowthis collection was any
thing other than ourextended playground.

was only because they were like theoolest grandparents ever.
The museum is growing in
mportance with the farm-to-
ork consciousness bringing
usloads of students on field trips.
As Ostman points out, The
museum is an amazing display of
arly California that appeals to
he artist, historian, machinist,
ducator and kid in each of us.
Development specialist
Tatiana Ortega said the museum
lso has become a major event
enter for Yolo County, with every-
hing from trade shows to car
hows to weddings taking place in
the halls. Two local organizations,the Davis Waldorf School and
Camp Kesem, recently heldmajor fundraisers there and themuseums own annual fundraiser

Top: The Best 75 (75 horse power) isan early California track model.
You can tell because the track is
combined with the tiller wheel in theront. It took years to understand theapacity of track mobilization. Tracks
alone turned on a dime, but with atiller the Best 75 needed nearly an
acre to make a turn.

Move over, Napa, youve got
ome competition in NorthernCalifornia.
Always known as a strong farm-
ng community, especially due to
UC Davis prestigious College of
Agricultural and Environmental
ciences, Yolo County only recently
tarted becoming a major player
n the wine scene.
While wineries such as Bogle
nd the now-defunct R.H. Phillips
riginally brought winemaking to
he county in the 1960s and 1970s,
espectively, it wasnt until recently
that the region finally became a
major player in the industry with
more than 37 wineries and tasting
rooms, according to the Yolo
County Visitors Bureau.
While grapes have long been a
valuable crop in Yolo County,
theyve mostly been sent to other
regions to be made into wine. Not
anymore, says Chris Turkovich,
owner and winemaker for the
Winters-based Turkovich Family
Wines.
The wine industry is newer for
Yolo County, but weve got a longer
history of grape-growing in the
area, Turkovich said. Weve kind
of been the supplier for a lot ofareas; not a lot of wineries and not
a lot of wine production beingdone in the county, but its been in
the top four or five crops in thecounty for a long, long time.
Turkovich also serves as presi-dent of the Roots to Wine organi-zation, a group of eight area
wineries that have joined forces toshowcase the regions diversity in
wine.
From wineries so small in pro-duction levels that they dont evenhave tasting rooms (most of the
wine can be found in local grocerystores such as Nugget Markets) to
the behemoth of Matchbook Wine
Companys 1,300 acres of grapes,the Roots to Wine organizationgives a good representative of the
regions wines.Take, for instance, Zamoras
Matchbook, which got its name
from brothers John and Karl
Giguieres childhood obsession with
lighting objects on fire. (We burned
a few buildings down; I wont get
into that story, John says.)
With food trucks providing arepast and the rolling hills offering
a great view, its fun to relax on the
porch with a glass of a Match-book Spanish varietal such as t
recently released Tinto Rey
Verdejo, a white wine that pair
well with the often-seen lobste
truck, or the more traditional
tempranillo.
We didnt know what kinds
grapes to plant, John Giguiere
the former owner of R.H. Phill
said between sips of the Tinto
Verdejo. We listened to the
Cheers to Yolos emerging wine scen

After the ceremony, guests can

artake in a game of bocce ball
while sipping on any of the fourarietals, including the Wedding
Hill White, a sauvignon blanc
rown around that picturesque
eremony hill.
Typical bottles in the area, no
matter which location visited, tend
o cost much less than competing
egions, with many in the $20-
30 range.
The biggest thing from the cus-
omer standpoint is the value, the
uality of wine for the price,
Turkovich said. Since our landprices arent crazy here, its just not
overrun yet with tourists, we canmake good wine but still offer it ataffordable prices.
You can get really good wine for$20, $30, $40 in Yolo County,
thats just kind of an entry-levelwine (price) if you go over to Napa
or some of those other places.With a wide variety of choices,
affordable prices and world-classfood to boot, the Yolo County wine
region is the hidden gem that pro-vides something for everyone.
Just dont expect it to stay hid-den for much longer.

Solano County is among the mostgeographically diverse ofCalifornias 58 counties.
Vallejo, in the southern corner of the
ounty, sits along San Pablo Bay and has
he graceful Carquinez suspension bridge
o take Interstate 80 motorists over the
Carquinez Strait. Here, summer skies areften gray in the morning from the high
og that streams through the Golden
Gate on the opposite end of the bay.
Benicias views are also dominated by
water. The city sits along the Carquinez
trait and Southhampton Bay. Solano
County is considered part of the Bay
Area and the Vallejo/Benicia area shows
why.
In the northernmost county near
Dixon, the Bay Area seems a world away.
This is flat Central Valley land domi-
ated by agriculture. Summer tempera-ures often soar into triple digits and
winter brings a type of fog called the tule
og. There are no major waterways to be
een, though there are canals that bring
rrigation water to farms.
Eastern Solano County is Delta
ountry. Here, near the small city of Rio
Vista, the Sacramento River and a net-
work of sloughs are a watery highway for
boats. Summer temperatures are hot
here, unlike those in Vallejo. The Real
McCoy II ferry takes travelers on High-
way 84 over Cache Slough to Ryer
Island, a farming community behind
levees.The western county has oak-studded
hills and valleys, in places presenting an
appearance similar to the Wine Country
of Napa and Sonoma counties. Not coin-
cidentally, this is Solano Countys own
wine country, with acres of vineyards
and several wineries in Suisun Valley.
The central county near FairfieldandSuisun Cityis a land of
transition between the Delta and
the bays. Among its features are Suisun
Marsh, the largest contiguous estuarine
marsh in the United States. Duck clubsdominate this land of tules and
wetlands. State preserves feature such
sights as tule elk.
Solano County retains a rural feel. A
voter-passed law funnels most growth

Public art in Davis is an evolving thing.
The art on the streets here is for themost part privately owned and main-
ained, with sculptures around town that are
wned by their creators, facilitated by privateroperty owners, but can be moved away onheir artists requests.
Local creative force John Natsoulas, owner of
he Natsoulas Gallery at First and E streets, haseen the man behind many a public art project
in the city in past years,including the new Roy
the Dog sculpture andthe public cooperativemural project at the
parking garage at Firstand F streets.
Roy the Dogreplaced Stan theSubmerging Man,
but other new artprojects abound indowntown. Besure to see the
life-size giraffe
sculpture on First Street at the Hallmark Inn
and the five utility box art projects arounddowntown.
Kerry Rowland-Avrech painted a utility box
at Third and F streets, right next to University
of Beer. The work shows squirrels doing various
jobs. She thought about common Davis themes
of bicycling and education, but those themes
seemed too done for her.
I just wanted to break the mold on that,
Rowland-Avrech said. There are so many
squirrels in Davis and they are so mischievous.
She believes the squirrel theme will delight
animal lovers and children. The city paid for
the utility boxes to be painted, going through ajury selection process of artists designs. Four
out of five boxes are painted by a Davis artist.
A box at the corner of First and E streets was
painted by a Sacramento artist.
While utility box paintings may bethere for quite some time, andperhaps the murals around town,publicly displayed sculptures throughout
downtown Davis could be switched out for new
ones at a moments notice.
New replacement installations mean articreations will be ready for a whole new toura whole new audience. The longest any piec
will stay put is three years, Natsoulas has saThe sculptures are not owned by the city
Davis, he has said. The sculptures are not up by the city.
More importantly for Natsoulas, the city blessed the projects so they can happen.
City Councils that have obstructed artisticprojects to be displayed in public over cost o
liability issues have been replaced in recent t
by council members who have actively suppothe kind of activity Natsoulas and his compaots have done and plan to do around town.
Mostly that involves not stopping the artfrom doing what they want to do with privaraised money.
There are so many creative people in towNatsoulas said. How do you get out of thei
way?
