Sweet potato country
Agriculture is still Livingston's leading industry. The city is home to Foster Farms, one of the largest poultry producers in the western United States, and to Joseph Gallo Farms, which runs one of the nation's largest dairy herds, and the area produces and packs about 90 percent of all sweet potatoes grown west of the Rocky Mountains. Almond orchards fill out the farmland, on sandy soils laid down by the Merced River. Dairy equipment, bin trailers and orchard machinery get repaired right where they sit, because the rig carries engine-drive welding power, wire feeders, an oxy-acetylene torch and a plasma cutter.
For directions, a landmark helps: Memorial Park, the Livingston Historical Museum, or the Hammatt Avenue exit off Highway 99.
Questions we hear
Do you come out to Livingston?
Yes. The town is named for Dr. David Livingstone, the Scottish explorer of Africa, and an error on the post office application gave it a different spelling. Livingston incorporated on September 11, 1922, and its motto is The Last Stop. Highway 99 brings the rig right through town. Call or text and we'll set a time.
Can you repair dairy and orchard equipment near Livingston?
Yes. Feed wagon frames, manure spreader beaters, cracked bin trailer tongues and broken loader quick-attach plates get welded right on the farm. Send a photo and the location and we'll plan the trip.
Do you also cover Delhi?
Yes. Delhi lies northwest across the Merced River from Livingston, a short hop up the freeway, and a job there rides along on the same run.
What hours do you work?
Regular hours are 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. After-hours and emergency call-outs are available 24 hours a day, Monday - Saturday and are quoted up front. Call or text us to schedule.
Something broken in Livingston?
Dairy, orchard or packing shed, send a photo and the rig takes Highway 99 to the Hammatt Avenue exit.
