What we’re about
Rodgers Ranch was first founded as a farm in 1867, and is now on the National Register of Historic places. Originally a 149 acre farm, it was reduced in size over the years until just two acres remained, and the house was restored by the Historical Society. We re-started farming in 2012, and have since taught hundreds of people in various classes, including culinary, permaculture, biodynamics, composting, bees, and many other topics.
Location = 315 Cortsen Road in Pleasant Hill, CA.
