About Coachella, California

Coachella is a city of 41,941 people in Riverside County, at the eastern end of the valley that carries its name. It began in 1876 as Woodspur, a siding the Southern Pacific Railroad built so crews could cut mesquite wood, first for the railroad and later for buyers in Los Angeles. Jason L. Rector, who worked for Southern Pacific, is the first non-Native resident on record.

Water turned the siding into a town. In 1900 Rector and his brother drilled the town's first artesian well, and that same year they cleared 25 acres and planted barley, wheat, cantaloupes, watermelons and sugar beets. Hundreds of farmers followed them, because the valley could bring in crops earlier than other parts of the Southwest. By 1902 more than 100 artesian wells had been drilled, and Coachella became a city in 1946.

“the land proved wonderfully fertile, and all of the crops did well, coming to maturity in a phenomenally short time.”

  • Renamed in 1901At a town hall meeting in 1901, the people of Woodspur voted to call their town Coachella. A 1922 county history says the name was meant to be Conchella, for place of shells, until a printer spelled it Coachella and nobody ever changed it back.
  • The valley's first boxcar of fruitBy 1902 Rector had formed a growers' group, the Coachella Valley Produce Association, and it sent out the first boxcar of fruit raised here. A packing house went up in town, and soon after it an ice and pre-cooling plant. Rector was the only owner of the Coachella Valley Refrigerating Company.
  • Hands from many placesThe first growers hired Cahuilla workers, then recruited farmworkers from Japan. Next came Mexican families escaping the Cristero Rebellion of the 1920s and the revolution that broke out in 1910. Many were forced out in the Great Depression, and Japanese families were interned in World War II, while the Bracero Program brought thousands of Mexican farmworkers back. Many of the interned families came home to the valley afterward.
  • Table grapes and the UFWThe Coachella Valley was a key battleground for the United Farm Workers. In 1970 David Freedman & Co. broke ranks with the other grape growers and signed with the union, its first contract with a table grape grower, and the rest of the industry soon did the same.
  • Three fiestas a yearCoachella celebrates Cinco de Mayo and the 16 de Septiembre Fiestas Patrias, which honor Mexican independence from Spain. On 12 de Diciembre it keeps the feast of Santa Maria de Guadalupe, Mexico's patron saint.
