French Gulch

French Gulch is a tiny historic community in Shasta County, California, a former gold-mining hamlet in the hills west of Redding, a small rural community of historic character, rural-residential properties, and small trades, in country shaped by wildfire, where remote distance, offline-tolerance, and wildfire resilience matter every day. Its business base runs on historic tourism, rural-residential property, trades and home services, small retail, real estate, and the handful of businesses serving a remote historic hamlet. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for the businesses of French Gulch and Shasta County, built to keep working when the network doesn't, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
