Illuminating Solano County

The Vallejo Sun is an independent news publication illuminating Solano County, California.

It was founded in 2021 by journalists John Glidden, Brian Krans, and Scott Morris, who saw a need for in-depth reporting about local government, policing, and extremist movements in the region. Glidden left the organization in 2023.

In 2022, the Vallejo Sun formed a partnership with Gretchen Zimmermann and Vallejo Arts & Entertainment to cover the city’s rich arts and culture.

The Vallejo Sun has steadily expanded to include a growing number of freelance contributors.
