| The Ramona Valley is known as "The Valley of the Sun" and is called the Rhone Valley of California and has the same soil type as Sonoma. Ramona was called Nuevo back in the 1850's and was home to the native american indians. The settlers were lured here by the abundance of water and great weather in the 1950's. Ramona was the turkey capitol of the world, producing more turkeys a year than anywhere and celebrated every year with an annual turkey parade. Every year women would make beautiful dresses out of turkey feathers to wear in the parade. Since then the turkey industry has been replaced by egg ranchers and horse farmers along with various other types of farming. However, I'm sure that if you look around the town long enough you will certainly be able to spot a few big turkeys. | Ramona, CA
