Producer Stories from UFRW Farmers & Ranchers

The Dobbas Ranch of Sattley is located in Sierra Valley of Sierra County. The first parcel was purchased in 1989 from the Turner family. Later the Dargie, Barutti and Church parcels were added to the ranch. Jim believes that saving Sierra Valley ranch land is vital to preserving the heritage of the valley as well as ensuring the future quality of life in the valley.
