Fallon

Small Town. Big Smiles.

Fallon and Churchill County are mostly agricultural areas. Although the area is arid, approximately 50,000 acres (200 km2) of its pastureland are irrigated with water from the Truckee–Carson Irrigation District. The principal crop grown here is alfalfa for livestock feed. The “Heart O’ Gold” cantaloupes of Churchill County were once distributed across the U.S.A., but these are now grown mostly for consumption in Nevada.

Whether it’s arts, activities, food, history or natural beauty, “The Oasis of Nevada” has something for everybody.

Home to a variety of family-friendly events held throughout the year, Fallon attracts people of all ages from around the world. Let one of these events become a tradition for your family.
