Capay Valley Organic Farm

The Capay Valley is a beautiful intermountain valley of fertile land sandwiched between the Coast Range and the Capay Hills in western Yolo County. The renowned Cache Creek flows the entire length of the valley, a tailwater out of Clear Lake and a tributary to the Sacramento River. The communities in the Capay Valley are rich in history dating back to the 1800’s. Guinda, town of 600, has its place in the heart of the valley. Prior to European settlers, the Capay Valley was home to indigenous people that thrived within the territory for centuries and today the descendant Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation is based in Brooks, landmarked by the stunning Cache Creek Casino Resort and their Seka Hills Olive Mill and Tasting Room, which showcases the agricultural bounty of the Capay Valley. Woven out of the excellent natural resources, an ideal Mediterranean climate (hot dry summers and mild wet winters) and the vision and toil of many, the Capay Valley has become a diverse blend of farming and agritourism, featuring small and mid-sized farms. Their successful endeavors produce a cornucopia of vegetables, fruits, nuts, livestock, flowers, artisan olive oils and fine wines. These products are marketed through a number of channels, including farmers markets in the Bay Area, subscription boxed delivery to regional customers and local farm stores. Promoting this rich agricultural heritage and connection to the land, the Capay Valley is host to several well attended events including the Almond Blossom and Hoes Down Festivals in addition to numerous farm-to-fork dinners, wedding venues and tasting rooms that allow visitors and guests to soak up the blue mountains, golden hills and verdant fields of the Capay Valley. Recreation draws even more fun seekers to the valley with white-water rafting down Cache Creek, hiking and game hunting in the mountains and a round of golf with fine dining amenities at the Yocha Dehe Golf and Casino Resort. Whatever pulse one seeks, the Capay Valley has a sip of a rustic elixir or a bubbling tonic just for your tastes.
