“Farm to Fork” is not just an advertising slogan: It reflects a

wine than any other U.S. state.

Think big, Sacramento!
Development and urban revitalization
Our biggest flaw is not thinking big enough, not encouraging the visionaries who want to move us from where we are to where we could undoubtedly be.
