El Camino (Spanish for "The Path") is a rural community and irrigation district near Gerber in Tehama County, in the U.S. state of California.[1][2] As a special district, the El Camino Irrigation District is owned by local residents who govern it through locally elected board members.[3][4][5]
Historically, the district was a subdivision, in California law, of what used to be the Finnell Ranch, which in the early 20th century was part of the El Camino Colony.[6][2]
