Farms of Tuolumne County

The Farms of Tuolumne County (FOTC) is a non-profit organization that supports local agriculture through various marketing and educational initiatives. Our goal is to unite farmers, ranchers, community groups, and residents to help bolster the agricultural industry, promote agri-tourism, and preserve open spaces within Tuolumne County.

Our objectives include increasing the demand for locally sourced and processed foods, fostering a sustainable local food system, and enhancing economic growth and stability within the county. We are dedicated to expanding agri-tourism opportunities and raising awareness of the agricultural diversity and heritage found here. Through our grant program, we have awarded $17,109 in scholarships and grants since 2011 to promote agriculture in the region.

FOTC is supported by a membership structure, offering various benefits, including listings in our online directory and participation in our annual Farm and Ranch Tour. Members also receive entries in the printed FOTC Farm and Ranch Guide, access to promotional materials, and more. Joining us helps to sustain our efforts as we continue to champion the agricultural community of Tuolumne County.
