2018 Map of Tres Picos Farms

About this map

Tres Picos Farms sits within a landscape defined by industrial-scale agriculture and critical water infrastructure in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley. This portion of the Central Valley is bisected by the massive Governor Edmund G Brown California Aqueduct, which winds southward across a grid of section lines and gravel access roads. The terrain transitions from the flat alluvial floor toward the rising slopes of the Big Blue Hills in the southwest, where the Coalinga-Mendota Rd provides a primary transit corridor alongside seasonal watercourses like Cantua Cr and Salt Cr. The map reveals a strictly organized rural geography, where family-named thoroughfares such as S Amador Rd and S Tuolumne Ave serve the expansive farm plots and orchards that dominate the region's economy.
