Located in the heart of the fertile San Joaquin Valley, Modesto is known as the city of "Water, Wealth, Contentment and Health." This means you can enjoy all the tranquility and recreation that refreshing waterways offer while thriving in a vibrant community with a “small town” feel and a healthy commitment to mind, body and spirit.

With a population of over 180,000, Modesto offers a convenient mix of big city amenities along with its small town charm so you never miss out on the excitement—yet you enjoy the simple things in life. With excellent schools, affordable housing and close proximity to Yosemite National park as well as the San Francisco Bay Area, it's no wonder Modesto is one of Foster Farms employees favorite places to live.
