HistoricWintersburg

Wintersburg Village (now part of north Huntington Beach, California) was once the "celery capitol" of America, instrumental in the agricultural wealth that fueled Orange County's development.  Supported by Japanese immigrants, Wintersburg Village and the Wintersburg Japanese Presbyterian Mission became a social touchstone for those becoming Americans.  Historic Wintersburg is a century-old Japanese farm and mission complex, still standing in 21st Century Huntington Beach.  There is a community historic preservation effort to save this unique part of American history for future generations.
