Our Values

To paraphrase John Steinbeck's opening lines in his novel, "Cannery Row"...

Nevada City in the Sierra Nevada foothills in California is a poem, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream.

Nevada City is an accumulation of well-preserved nineteenth century architectural treasures and a few that are not. It is a state of being, a paradox. It is many things to many people, and nothing to some.

It's survival is determined by the attitude of those people who are willing to care.
