Redwood Valley was named after the majestic redwood groves between Road M and Calpella. Prior to 1857; the Pomo Indians occupied the valley along with grizzly bears; mountain lions; and eagles. The valley became a melting pot of nationalities; with people coming into it from Italy; Germany; Scotland; and Finland. They plowed the land; herded their flocks; harvested their crops; and established unique industries. The early pioneers set the tone for the valley community with their ambitions and hard-work ethic. Together; they paid for and supported schools; churches; an improvement club; the grange; fire and water districts; post offices; agricultural improvements; and stores. The infamous People�s Temple was located here. Redwood Valley�s 150-plus years of recorded history is rich in what it takes to make a valley into a community.
