Farmland and pastoral living in Hartley
Hartley has pastoral ranches and farmland below the Vaca Mountains. Between Sacramento and the Bay Area, this rural neighborhood has access to big-city conveniences in Vacaville, a former produce center known for its fruit-and-nut shipping. One example of its development is Nut Tree, an extensive restaurant complex that started as a roadside fruit stand in the 1920s. As Vacaville becomes more modern, Hartley maintains its old-fashioned atmosphere about 5 miles north. "People in Hartley enjoy the closeness to the freeway for commuting, and they get a taste of the country at a more affordable price," says Janice Jackson, an area local and Broker at First Realty & Investment. "Families grow here, they stay here, and they have their children here. It's a generational town."
