Water for Wildlife

The water in our valley rice fields helps with decomposition but it also provides important habitat along the Pacific Flyway for wildlife.


Kurt Richter is a third generation rice grower who farms acres with his family’s operation, Richter AG, in Colusa, Butte & Sutter Counties.

Kurt, and his wife Tosh, have one son, Max. When not on the farm, Kurt likes to travel urban landscapes with his family, and ride waves off the coast of Southern California.
