Did you know that the Sierra National Forest is managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture?On Saturday, September 28th, 2024, come with us and learn how the vital services that our forest provides can sustain a precious ecosystem within Fresno County. The biodiversity found in our Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks, within the Sierra National Forest, directly affects agriculture in the Valley, in a myriad of ways, which we will discover on this excursion. Reserve your seats now for this incredible jaunt to the forest on September 28th.
Join the Fresno City & County Historical Society and Tour Director, Candice Calderon, in this full-day Ag Tour which will include two stops. The first, you will visit Welker's Custom Cut Lumber, where you will hear from owner, Kristopher Welker, about the connection between agriculture and forestry with examples of sustainable timber and lumber practices.
