Cinco de Mayo marks the historic victory of the Mexican army over France at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, during the Franco-Mexican War. While it might be a relatively low-key affair in Mexico, here in Ventura County and the greater Los Angeles area, it's a festive occasion. It offers a wonderful opportunity to honor and delve into Mexican culture and traditions with our local community.
