History
From the blue hills of the Capay Valley, across generations of tradition. For thousands of years, our people have lived in the oak forests, rolling hills and grasslands of Northern California’s Capay Valley, tending the natural resources and the land that is home to our culture, history, and traditions. Today much of this land is planted with vineyards, olive trees and the bounty of carefully nurtured crops.
