City of Greenfield, CA
Greenfield Rising
Greenfield, CA is a growing city in the heart of the Salinas Valley, one of the most productive agricultural areas in the world. In order to secure a substantial revenue stream for the city, they have formed strong partnerships with front wave businesses in the cannabis industry as well as working on pursuing its share of the ever-growing tourism industry. With its proximity to the Monterey Peninsula, the Salinas Valley is a natural destination for those who seek new vistas, such as a thriving wine trail, the Pinnacles National Park (one of the nation’s newest), agri-tourism, the Arroyo Seco recreation area, and exploring “Steinbeck Country,” where Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck set many of his greatest works, and the soon to be established Yank’s Air Museum. Along with establishing these revenue generators, Greenfield is also working very hard to assist in educating their youth by providing after-school homework centers, a science-oriented activity center (the Greenfield Community Science Workshop) and working regionally with sister cities, local school districts and local community college to more widely implement vocational education opportunities.
