Welcome To Petaluma, CA

The northwestern California community was founded along the Petaluma River near the Sonoma Mountain. The Rancho Petaluma Adobe constructed by General Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo was one of the first European settlements here.

However, gold found in the Sierra Nevada mountains in 1848 brought more settlers out West. Today, the city is proud of its heritage and big-city amenities. Must see destinations found in the community include the Petaluma Historical Library and Museum and the Petaluma Adobe State Historic Park.

Things To Do

During the last weekend in April, the community commemorates its "maker" heritage with the annual Butter and Egg Days Festival. The festival begins with a parade and continues with a cow chip throwing contest. Children dressed as chicks compete in the Cutest Chick Contest. Dance troupes representing various ethnic cultures provide live entertainment. Artisans, food vendors and local businesses set up exhibit booths.

In July, the community hosts the annual Art and Garden Festival. Two stages provide live entertainment by bands playing everything from the blues and country to pop and rock. Artisans and gardeners present their products. Breweries and wineries offer samples of their beers and wines.

In September, antique lovers and collectors are invited to the annual Antique Faire. The downtown area transforms into an antique marketplace where nearly 200 dealers display a variety of art, books, furniture, kitchenware, jewelry and other unusual items.

Each October, local brewers host the annual Home Brewer's Competition. The public is invited to judge some of the best home brews from 60 recipes offered for sampling. The winner will have the honor of having their recipe created at the 101 North Brewing Company for county-wide distribution.

The entire month of October is set aside to celebrate Harvest Days. Throughout the month, area merchants offer specials. Local farms have pumpkin patches, interactive animal exhibits, corn mazes and other fun-filled activities. Merchants also welcome costumed little ones on Halloween to visit during the Trick or Treat Trail.
