early days as the "Pantry of the Northern Mines,"

farms, cattle ranches and most recently vineyards to rival
that of Napa County. With it’s rolling green hills,
and large old growth oak trees Penn Valley is a picturesque
landscape to call home. The

Named
for U.S. President Zachary Taylor, known as "Old Rough
& Ready," this is the little town that made a name
for itself by seceding from the Union in 1850 because residents
objected to a tax on mining. The succession lasted only a
few months but is remembered every June with the Annual Rough
& Ready Succession Days Celebration. Rough & Ready
is located a short drive west of Grass Valley and is a peaceful
oasis of country living.
