Attend with your spouse for a very unique week and the perfect balance of business and pleasure.”
The tour is scheduled for Feb. 11 through 17, 2024, beginning and ending in Sacramento, California. The full schedule of activities provides a stress-free way to experience the best of California agriculture, innovation and beauty.
