A desert city renowned for extreme heat, military installations, and a rich agricultural industry, especially known for lettuce production.

Tips from the community

During a downtown block party in Yuma, Arizona, party-goers get to celebrate the new year with a double drop of iceberg lettuce. The annual Yuma Iceberg Drop is a nod to the area’s agriculture. A massive eight-foot illuminated head of lettuce is dropped at 10p.m. to coincide with the east coast’s New Year’s Eve celebration and then again at midnight.
