The City of Elk Grove, located in Northern California is located just south of the state capital of Sacramento. Founded in 1850, Elk Grove started out as a stage stop. Located about 15 miles south of the historic Sutter’s Fort, Elk Grove became a crossroads for business, entertainment, mail service and agriculture, and acted as home base for gold miners in nearby communities.
