So what about the Fresno area? Well, it's a well kept secret for the most part. With 90%
of Zacky Farms' production located within a 35 mile radius of Fresno, California, our
greatest concentration of employees are at home in the nation's number one agribusiness
county. Fresno County produces over four billion dollars of agricultural products yearly.
Fresno, with an urban population of over 450,000, the sixth largest city in California,
lies in the heart of the work famous, agriculturally rich, San Joaquin Valley. The rich
diversity of the Valley - culturally, ethnically and geographically, helps to create
a stable yet diverse economy. Even with it's burgeoning growth, Fresno and its residents
still pride themselves on family, small town values and attitudes.
Valley residents enjoy the rich combination of both rural and cosmopolitan life. Fresno is
one of the healthiest cities and is one of the most affordable housing available to families
in California. With a view of the magnificent snow-capped Sierras, to the sun-soaked Valley,
Fresno's residents enjoy living in the only large American city within two hours driving
distance of three National Parks - Yosemite, Sequoia and Kings Canyon. Fresno's central
location is also just a few hours drive from San Francisco, Carmel, Big Sur, Monterey,
Morro Bay, Sacramento and Lake Tahoe.
With a climate that ranges from Mediterranean at sea level to Alpine in the mountains, recreational
and entertainment opportunities are unlimited and possible in all seasons. For those with
an appetite for ballet, theater, music, museums and galleries, you will find the best of these
worlds complimentary to this already superior lifestyle.
