Meadow Farm is a quiet and creative sanctuary surrounded by the forest. The ocean breezes freshen the air and the pulse of the planet is heard as the surf sounds travel to put us to rest at night.. We are a place for people experimenting with the new old ways to live with low impact and conservation of our precious resources. We offer affordable accommodations, organic gardening, and education on plants and living simply. We welcome your interest in veganic garden and diet, orchards, and forest trails. Our organic vegetables and fruit may be available if you wish to bring some of our farm to your table. Our garden is reduced this time of year but we may still have something to share. We can offer you a quiet and peaceful place without social pressures if you wish to "decompress" from city life, jobs or any stressful times. Or come to the communal fire near the bathhouse for sharing some time with family and the few other campers that may be there. Bringing your own wood is welcome. The coastal bike and hike trails are many. From South of Ft Bragg to the Sand Dunes near Ward Ave. you can travel over 7 miles one way and go down to quiet little beach coves along the way. Meadow Farm is a nonprofit 501c3 with goals of coastal food security, disaster preparation and sheltering, carbon sequestering and forest restoration. We offer native plant tours on or off site with advance notice. We like our dog companions! Two McNab collies, Moxie and Shama live here and may bark at first...still very friendly and social with people and other dogs.. There are several dog friendly off-leash areas such as, Noyo North Harbor Beach, Seaside Beach and dog parks in both Ft Bragg and Mendocino. Our farm is dog friendly tho we wish pets to be kept close, must be neutered and friendly to other dogs and people. Please be sure to bury or bag the waste. Speaking of waste, Meadow Farm strives to reduce waste by avoiding plastic as much as possible, recycling what we can and composting our veggie scraps. Please bring your own waste receptacles and take them along when you go. We take ours to the Caspar Transfer Station which is open Saturday through Wednesday... the location and hours can be found online. Our water is from a deep well and we periodically test it for bacteria. It is cold and delicious. Our irrigation pipes that have spigots and hoses at each camp are safe for drinking, cooking and cleaning. Our solar pump moves water into storage tanks that provide all the water to the farm. It is very important that the water valves on your camp spigot is turned off (gently please) to avoid losing 2500 gallons of water in a short time. If you see a leak or break in a line please contact us immediately. There are also water shut offs for the camps on the west side of the Farm House if you are unable to reach us right away.. When doing dishes we request that you use the strainer to catch food particles from the dish water and toss them in your trash or compost bucket. If you have vegetable waste let us know and we can pick them up for adding to the worm bins or composting piles. We make worm "tea" fertilizer and rich soil from these offerings. No animal products or oil please... a few egg shells are okay. We do have the usual wildlife though we haven't had problems with them. Ravens will raid your camp if food or bags are left out while you are away. From dusk to dawn keep children and pets close. We coexist well here with the critters...and glad to have them. Wishing you a very peaceful and soul refreshing stay at Meadow Farm. Come and allow this natural setting to heal and restore your sense of well-being.

Blue Heron Camp

Camping with nice facilities!

It is wonderful place with shower/restroom/tap water -- mostly likely everything you need to enjoy a peaceful night! When we stayed, there is no other camper sharing the huge land, and we were able to see a few meteors on the sky!

Turkey Tail Camp

I had a great time at the Turkey Tail camp on Sojourna's property! It was just me and my two labs there for three days and it was so perfectly quiet and beautiful. A few of the farmers stopped by to say hello and were all really kind and friendly. I was gifted some lavender that I am still enjoying. I would definitely recommend this site and would love to revisit someday.

Blue Heron Camp

Sojourna greeted us when we arrived and made sure we knew she'd be available if needed, but the site was great and we didn't have any issues. All three camping sites were occupied while we were there. This site is the middle of the three sites, but still private. We appreciated the conveniences of the table and chairs, and the water spigot and water jug. The compost toilet and shower were between this site and the farthest site. It was conveniently close, but not too close. ;) The toilet was clean and odor-free; we didn't try the shower. We would definitely camp here again.

Turkey Tail Camp

Very nice place to stay in Ft Bragg. Quiet, peaceful and with plenty of space for each site. The garden and meadow area are nice to see as well. The place is a not for profit that supplies organic food to charity. Responsive to questions etc. we stayed there in our camper van. There is a hot shower and compost toilet.
