Sanger, CA - Down home and real best describes Lucinda Kay Boragno, her poems, songs, and life. Co-founder of California Cowgirls Unlimited, established in 2004 with her best friend Gail Jensen Carradine (who passed in 2010), Lucinda works hard to preserve their father’s memories and memories growing up as farm kids in the San Joaquin Valley, which is reflected in our their country music, poetry, literature, and much more. Working as a farmer, author, poet, and song writer in the central valley of California, Lucinda is all grapes and raisins. “At one time, and hopefully still, this area of California fed the nation. Plums, fresh fruit, raisins, wine. Before Napa and all this popularity with wines, our valley furnished the nation with wine and champagne. In the summer, you could smell the fruit ripening while driving your car down the country roads. With the windows down, you could feel the coolness from the ditch water irrigating the land and smell raisins drying in the sun and tomatoes ripening,” shares Lucinda. “Family farms, not factory farms, are the backbone of this country.” Getting back to the basics is what Lucinda is all about. Growing up on the farm, Lucinda is also an animal lover and owner of California Cowgirls Unlimited. Lucinda got into songwriting with Gale, who was married to the late actor David Carradine. Lucinda’s husband, Kevin L. Peachy (aka Peach) also served as her entertainment manager, “Peach was a Hollywood-renowned musician, and he played a lot with Motown recording artists.” For more information about Lucinda Kay Boragno, please visit http://www.lucindaboragno.com/
