Fresno is the largest city in California’s Central Valley and the business center of one of the most productive agricultural regions on earth. Fresno County ranks among the top farm counties in the nation, growing grapes, almonds, pistachios, citrus, stone fruit and much more, and the city’s economy revolves around agribusiness, food processing, logistics, health care and California State University, Fresno. Large Armenian, Hmong, Punjabi and Mexican American communities give the region a distinctive culture and food scene.
Los Angeles and San Francisco are both three hours or more away by car, so private flights are a practical way for growers, investors, lenders and executives to visit farms, packing houses and processing plants. Fresno Yosemite International is close to downtown, and Fresno Chandler Executive sits just west of the city center. Fresno is also the nearest metro area to three national parks: Yosemite’s south entrance is about an hour and a half north on Highway 41, while Kings Canyon and Sequoia are reached by Highway 180 to the east.

Top attractions
Things to do in Fresno
When to go. Spring is Fresno’s loveliest season, with orchards blooming along the Blossom Trail from late February into March. Summers are hot and dry, frequently above 100°F, which makes the cool mountain parks especially appealing. The Big Fresno Fair fills October, and fall harvest brings fresh produce and pleasant temperatures. Winter is mild, but dense tule fog can settle over the valley for days, so allow some flexibility for flights during those months.
