Major retail expansion, new housing developments, infrastructure improvement and investment and expansion of educational facilities have all succeeded in creating new jobs for our community. Three new hotels and increased occupancy in all lodging facilities enhanced Watsonville’s tourism-related economy.

Agricultural History Project

A trip back in time to the old days of farming

uring the Agricultural History Project’s annual Day on the Farm event, now in its 12th year, children help adults grind corn, pump water, milk cows and churn butter, bypassing the grocery store for their dinner’s ingredients. AHP CEO John Kegebein said the event serves as a way to showcase how people worked to put food on their tables. It takes guests on a trip back in time to the old days of farming, forgoing the high-tech appliances that define modern living.

“We want to show people that food comes from the farm and not the grocery store,” he said. With the help of adults, children are able to drive an early 1940s John Deere tractor. A tractor rodeo is also held, featuring trophies and ribbons. A team of Clydesdale draft horses give hayrides. In addition, some guests have the chance to steer the horses around the Gazebo. Other animals at the event include rabbits, lambs, goats, chickens and alpacas from Rock Star Alpacas.

2014-2015 PAJARO VALLEY BUSINESS & COMMUNITY PROFILE

Day on the Farm typically draws around 1,000 people locally and from nearby areas, Kegebein said. “Day on the Farm is one of our biggest events of the year,” he said. “People of all ages have a great time participating in the activities of daily farm life of yesterday, as well as wandering through the exhibits on the history of agriculture here in Pajaro Valley.” The 1.3-acre Agricultural History Project site sits near the front of the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds, 2601 East Lake Ave. in Watsonville, and

contains its own museum, a barn and several other structures that house a fleet of antique tractors and a wealth of treasures from the Pajaro Valley’s rich agricultural heritage. It has all grown out of a letter campaign that started in late 1985. The Agricultural History Project also holds Second Saturdays on the Farm. Kids are able to try early-day water pumps, play hoops, string cranberries, popcorn and create paper chains, puppets, bird ornaments and other decorations. The Gift Shop, Museum and other exhibitions will all be open as well. Second Saturday was created to allow people to get a taste of early-day farm life in the Pajaro Valley. Each month a new theme is explored at the event. There is plenty of free parking and the entire event is free. Donations are appreciated.

Watsonville Civic Plaza

“Opportunity through diversity, unity through cooperation”

he Watsonville Civic Plaza continues to be a downtown gem for the city. The successful collaboration among the City of Watsonville, Santa Cruz County and the Superior Courts of the state of California opened in May of 2008. The 140,000-square-foot building, located at the corner of Main and Second Streets in downtown Watsonville, houses a new expanded Watsonville Library, the California Agricultural Workers History Center, City Administrative offices with Council Chambers, Superior Court facilities, and private and retail office uses. The facility is utilized by hundreds of people each day, and provides better access to public services for local residents. A library occupies the first two floors of the building, eliminating the overcrowding that occurred in the older library and providing a safe haven for students. The building provides a homework center, study area, computer room, and a public research room. The colorful and comfortable design includes a story hour room for children, and brightly colored computers intended for use by children. The Literacy Center, on the first floor, will help adults learn to read and write. The library also houses the California Agricultural Workers History Center, showcasing the area’s agricultural history and diversity. Photos and displays highlight the diverse background of the region’s agricultural workers, and a large research room includes related documents and recordings. The Santa Cruz County Superior Court facilities on the third floor provide expanded and improved services. The county’s family law courts have been relocated to the Civic Plaza, and the State-funded ”Self-Help Center” assists residents in accessing legal information so they more knowledgeably work through the court system. Consolidation of the courts and District Attorney offices in downtown Watsonville provides more centralized access for residents, and brings almost 100 employees downtown, contributing a major economic stimulus to

the area. The City Council Chambers allows more people to attend Council meetings, and are used by other public agencies. City administrative offices on the fourth floor are bright and spacious, providing extraordinary views of both the downtown area and the hills to the east. State-of-the-art computer and audio visual equipment enhance both the speaker and the observer’s experience at meetings. Also located on the top floor, a community room is available for rental by public or private groups of up to 240 people for meetings and parties.

indicate that Civic Plaza is indeed achieving that goal. The building is truly a tribute to the longterm collaborative efforts between the City, the County of Santa Cruz and the Superior Courts of the State of California, which resulted in the creation of an outstanding work environment for the building’s occupants as well as a pleasant experience for building visitors.

The building has commercial space for lease, including office space on the second and fourth floors and three on the first floor. It is served by a 460-space sixlevel parking structure that also provides parking for nearby downtown businesses. Civic Plaza was intended to serve as a catalyst for additional private investment and job creation downtown. Completion of a 20,000-square-foot commercial building directly across Second Street, coupled with the recent relocation of the adult school to Rodriguez Street and the expansion of the Cabrillo College Watsonville Campus to incorporate a vocational technology center
