Location:
Located halfway between San Francisco and Yosemite National Park sits
Modesto ā a vibrant, year-round city with every reason to stop. No matter which direction you are
traveling through Northern California, the fields of crops and orchards call out, tempting you with
the lure of farm-fresh goodness. Packed into your trunk or plated on the table, the harvest of each
season brings tasty delights. Spring and summer yield juicy stone fruits like peaches, nectarines,
and apricots, along with berry picking experiences at local farms. Farm stands and farmers markets
offer locally grown produce, nuts, jams, honeys, and even fresh almond butter to add to your picnic
basket, long into the autumn months. Winter means gift shopping and fresh Christmas trees, too. The
region truly shines in February and March when the almond orchards blossom, ushering in another year
of harvests. Our fruits and veggies bring a diverse restaurant culture that incorporates just-picked
ingredients, from BBQ joints, breweries, and global cuisine to over 40 food trucks serving ālocal
fresh,ā too!
But the lure of Modesto goes far beyond the fields. The wide variety of live
entertainment options earned the #1 ranking in āAmericaās Hidden Gems Live Music Sceneā and
international muralists are invited annually to add to the larger-than-life art collection downtown.
Every June, Graffiti Summer pays homage to our hometown boy George Lucasā classic, American
Graffiti. Car shows across the city culminate with a Friday night parade of over 1,000 classic cars
through downtown and a weekend festival. In October, Modesto celebrates womenās health and wellness
with MoPink, supporting small businesses, with proceeds going to local womenās programs and
charities. December ushers in MoCheer with ice skating, live music, parades, the Nutcracker, and
other classic holiday performances. The āAlmond Blossom Cruiseā has become an international draw
during five gorgeous weeks of millions of white and pink petals to ācruiseā through in the comfort
of your own car.
So, fill your trunk up with our homegrown goods ā but also stop for an affordable
foodie getaway, basecamp for outdoor excursions to the Sierras, family-friendly road trip, or
top-notch concert weekend. Modesto canāt wait to show you everything weāve got to
offer!
