description:
Large town for this agricultural area. Quaint downtown area with tree-lined streets. Central San Joaquin Valley. Notably one of the largest GMO farming areas of Cali, so if you want some fun times - go out to the fields and find new genetically engineered superbugs. Don't bother asking for "organic" in this town.
