SUSTAINABLE FARMING
Painted By - LK James
"Farming for the 22nd Century" has been our mantra and our guiding principle for Davis Ranches. Today, more so than ever, farming sustainably and responsibly is more than just a cliche or catch-phrase, it's a way of life. It reflects a conscious decision to pass on a legacy of farming to our children that can be continued for many centuries to come.
Colusa County produces a significant variety of crops: rice, tomatoes, sunflower, corn, beans, walnuts, pistachios and wheat to name a few. These crops are sold both domestically and internationally.
