Calaveras County Cows
CalaverasGROWN is a countywide marketing and education program to assist local agricultural producers in marketing their products. The goal is to bring communities together for the support and growth of agriculture, Agri-tourism, and preservation of open space in Calaveras County.
In the Spring of 2008 Calaveras Grown members worked with other Agricultural Coalition of Calaveras County members to draft the Agriculture and Forestry Element to the General Plan. The draft element and a letter of support were presented to the Calaveras County Board of Supervisors on August 5, 2008. The board voted unanimously to forward the element to Planning Department staff for review, revision and eventual adoption.
