Pescadero Community
As you already know Pescadero is the official name of the town where Cerritos Beach is, what you probably don't know is much about its people. Pescadero has a small, hard work, growing communtiy which main interests are their families and their farms.
DIA DE REYES
Unites States and most parts of the world have Christmas and Santa Claus, that bring goods, toys and presents to all kids whether they behaved or not. In Mexico we have Dia de los Santos Reyes Magos or Dia de Reyes (Three wise Men), which is better, they are three insted of only one Santa. According to the Mexican Tradition Los Tres Reyes Magos visit the house of all Mexican kids the night on January 6th to deliver presents. All Mexican kids, that only day, wake up at 6:00 am, (or earlier) to see their toys and presents and Pescadero children aren't any different.
On January 6th, Head of the Ejido, Carmen Higuera with the help of few of us organized a Dia De Reyes Party and put togehter a great party for all those childrens within Pescadero Community that aren't lucky enough to received the Tres Reyes Magos in their houses.


With your help, we'd love to make this an annual event and see these little fellows smiling from ear to ear on this so especial day for all them.
If you wish to help us making this a reality, please get in touch with us to send you more information.
CHILE AND STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL
Pescadero people other love is their farms production, based on cooking herbs, Chiles and Strawberry. Last April 4th & 5th Pescadero presented its first Festival del Chile y la Fresa, it was a great event to promote among local stores and big name stores like Walmart their production to convince them to buy direct from them and sell their produce locally.
The Governor of Baja California Sur, Narciso Agundez was there to cut the ribbon and wish to the Pescadero Community Ejidatarios the best of the luck getting their products into the local markets and to congratulate them for their great Primer Festival del Chila y la Fresa success.

Officially United Mexican States, republic (1995 est. pop. 93,986,000), 753,665 sq mi (1,952,500 sq km), S North America. It borders on the United States in the north, on the Gulf of Mexico (including its arm, the Bay of Campeche) and the Caribbean Sea in the
east, on Belize and Guatemala in the southeast, and on the Pacific Ocean in the south and west. Mexico is divided into 31 states and the Federal District, which includes most of the country's capital and largest city, Mexico City.
Land
Most of Mexico is highland or mountainous and less than 15% of the land is arable; about 25% of the country is forested. Most of the Yucatán peninsula and the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in the southeast is lowland, and there are low-lying strips of land along the
Gulf of Mexico, the Pacific Ocean, and the Gulf of California
In the south the deserts yield to the broad, shallow lakes of a region, comprising the Valley of Mexico, known as the Anáhuac and famous for its rich cultural heritage. South of the Anáhuac, which includes Mexico City, is a chain of extinct volcanoes, including Citlaltépetl , or Orizaba (18,700 ft/5,700 m, the highest point in Mexico), Popocatépetl , and Iztaccihuatl . To the south are jumbled masses of mountains and the Sierra Madre del Sur.
People
The great majority of the population are of mixed Spanish and indigenous descent and speak Spanish, the official language, as their first language. Various Mayan dialects are also spoken. Since 1920 the population of Mexico has had a very high rate of growth, almost entirely the result of natural increase; from 1940 to 1990 the population grew from 19.6 million to 81.1 million.
