If you live in California’s Central Valley, the people at your party are sure to enjoy delicious, fresh food!
This is one of the world’s most productive farming regions. More than half of the vegetables, nuts, and fruits grown in the United States come from the Central Valley.
The Central Valley is in the center of California. It is almost 450 miles in length. It occupies more than 10 percent of California’s land area. Bakersfield, Fresno, Stockton, Redding, and the state’s capital, Sacramento, are cities in the Central Valley.
