About Us - Monterey County
Monterey County is recognized as the Salad Bowl of the World. Its temperate climate, rich soils, and unparalleled infrastructure make this the ideal growing area for cool season vegetables, wine grapes, strawberries and flowers.

Because the agriculture is year round and highly labor-intensive, Monterey County has the State’s highest agricultural payroll.
