Exploring Gold Country

California is pictured the world over as a place of Disneyland, surfers, protests, big urban cities, suburban sprawl, Silicon Valley, San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf, and the birthplace of hippies and acid-rock music.  Many visitors are surprised to discover that most of California is located outside the main centers and is largely known for farming, recreation, and the mountain lifestyle.  The famous Gold Rush took place, not in the urban centers, but in the mountains to the east. 

The "Exploring Gold Country" section of the website has information about the unique activities, shops, art galleries, theater, and outdoor family fun offered in Gold Country. 

See the "Gold Country Farms & Lifestyles" section to learn about our present day explorers and adventurers and their products.
