Happy Pride Month! This June, the California Department of Food Agriculture (CDFA), is celebrating the colors that make California extraordinary — both in our communities and across our fields.
From strawberries and mandarins to lemons, avocados, grapes, and plums, California leads the nation in producing some of the world’s most iconic fruits and specialty crops. The same diversity that strengthens our agriculture is what strengthens our people.
We’re proud of the farmers, farmworkers, researchers, educators, partners, our CDFA employees, and advocates throughout agriculture, who help cultivate a more vibrant, inclusive, and resilient future every day.
This Pride Month, we celebrate the power of diversity, the richness of California agriculture, and the many colors that help our communities and farms thrive.
Thank you for the collaboration — with Jerry James Stone and the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service.
