Located just north of Stockton, and between the San Francisco Bay and the Sierra Nevada Mountains is the Lodi Wine Country, one of California’s most exciting wine destinations. Over the past decade, 4th and 5th generation winegrowers dedicated to the soils and vines have brought creative winemaking and cutting-edge technology to the region, catapulting Lodi into the spotlight.
South from Ripon with its Almond Blossom Festival to north and Lodi with its Grape Festival and Harvest Faire, opportunities for family gatherings and fun recreation abound. San Joaquin County government provides nine community parks for boating, camping, and picnicking, swimming and organized sports.
Annual family events include the Asparagus Festival, attended by thousands of fun-seekers from the county and beyond. Individual cities and communities provide a host of other opportunities, from Lodi Lake Park and Nature Area to the Woodbridge Ecological Reserve. Micke Grove Park offers a zoo, rides and a historic museum to delight both children and adults.
Stockton is also home to two semi-professional sports teams. The Stockton Heat (Hockey) and The Stockton Ports (Baseball).
The San Joaquin Delta is one of the area’s best kept secrets and offers some of the best boating in the state: more than 1,000 miles of waterways stretching from the Stockton Harbor to north of Sacramento and offering access to the San Francisco Bay.
