Sutter County, Agricultural county in Northern California, US
Sutter County stretches along the Sacramento River with fertile farmlands and the Sutter Buttes mountain range defining its southwestern border.
The county, established in 1850, received its name from John Sutter, a Swiss pioneer who established agricultural settlements during the California Gold Rush period.
The Chinese Heritage Museum in the county preserves artifacts and documents that demonstrate the contributions of Chinese immigrants to local development.
State Routes 99 and 20 connect the county to major urban centers while providing access to numerous parks, agricultural markets, and recreational areas.
The county leads California rice production with extensive paddies creating seasonal wetlands that attract thousands of migratory birds.
