Connect with Local Food

Solano County’s local food system is full of urban farms, farm stands, restaurants, retailers, wineries and other businesses. Check out what’s going on around the county for everything from a place to pick up the freshest produce to going on a farm tour. In need of food resources? Find those along with other links on our Community Resilience Resources page.

This map was created as part of Bounty of the County.
