Why We Love It Here
What makes Gilroy and Morgan Hill special isn’ t just the destination, it’ s how seamlessly they fit into everyday life. Another gem not widely known even to locals is our region’ s small-farm community. Just about any day, you can pop by a local family farm for fresh produce, eggs, milk, and other delights. It’ s a true taste of what our local area has to offer, brought to you by passionate, hardworking local families.
The trails we walk after work, the restaurants we gather with friends, the markets and festivals we plan our weekends around— all of it adds up to a place that feels authentic and deeply connected. For visitors, it’ s a glimpse into something special. For locals, it’ s a reminder of how lucky we are to call South County home.
