It is blessed with nature’s gifts and a heritage reflecting the rich tapestry of America. Its mild Mediterranean climate, fertile earth and forest bounty defined the region’s fortunes for two hundred years and more. Gradually, major agriculture took root. And today, the Gilroy region has grown to become a cornucopia of specialist horticulture – vegetable crops, greens, seeds and fruits of the vine. In particular, Gilroy’s massive garlic production is nationally renowned, and the annual festival sees the city lay claim to the title: ‘garlic capital of the world’. Clearly visible on the region’s horizon is a future even more rewarding and more sustainable than could ever have been imagined by Gilroy’s early ranchers, horticulturists and viticulturists. 4 DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO SAN JOSE? 5 DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO SAN JOSE? Silicon Valley’s behemothic spread is fanning the winds of optimism throughout the valley.
