Tancred, California

Tancred is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP)[1] in Yolo County, California.

The company enabled over 40 urban families to relocate to the area and acquire over 800 acres (3.2 km2) of land.

These families shared their resources in farming as well as constructing community areas such as a nursery and park.

[4] A frost in 1896 killed many of the fruit trees in the area, which led the company into bankruptcy and many of the coop farmers to lose their land.

Future land owners were able to find grain and nuts to grow in this colder part of the county, but the community hasn't grown much since its inception.
