Firebird Ridge

5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents60 acres · Hornbrook, CA

Welcome to adventure in far north Siskiyou County! Firebird Ridge presents a fantastic secluded yet convenient camp station in a beautiful semi-wild setting with huge open sky views over 50 miles of the Klamath River canyon and Siskiyou Crest. Just 10 minutes off the freeway, a variety of simple yet thoughtfully laid out low impact sites afford comfy car and tent camping or smaller RVs and vans, with ample privacy. Small to medium size (5-15p) groups may combine sites and enjoy some shared space and amenities, please inquire. Accessible year round at an elevation just under 3000 feet, the Ridge enjoys sunny skies and comfy temps, with cold nights and hot days in winter and summer respectively. This is a drier climate with infrequent rain between May and October, meaning some fire risk and potential smoke impacts for area forests, although the mountainside location generally offers clean fresh air with stunning sunsets and excellent stargazing! The land contains over a mile and a half of scenic trails, with rock features, old "bonsai" oak trees, native plants and wildflowers in a landscape undergoing restoration to a healthy fire resistant condition. Wildlife abounds, mostly the friendly sort however visitors should be mindful to avoid unwelcome encounters, and any small children or pets kept under close watch. Your host knows the environment well and can address questions or concerns. Count on fair to good cell service coverage, wifi and power are centrally accessible too. Activity and development on site are minimized to preserve and enhance the natural habitat and ambience. Guests are advised to minimize disturbance of other occupants and lifeforms. It's fine to have fun and make some intermittent noise but disruptive or damaging behavior will be promptly curtailed. This extends to the surrounding neighborhood as well, especially on the gravel road in/out where it's important to keep your speed (dust, noise etc) DOWN in the vicinity of houses. The property is not a park, playground, or big backyard, in fact probably not much like anyplace you've been...prepare for a novel experience! A good mix of curiosity, care, humility, and attentiveness will go a long ways toward making your initial stay here satisfying and smooth. Come as a guest, not a customer - and find yourself at home in the wild! Youth visitors are welcome but must be supervised and receptive to pertinent guidelines. This location is not set up (yet) for people with mobility challenges, or people with no prior wilderness experience.

Mindful Earth Farm

3 sites · RVs, Tents6 acres · Ashland, OR

Mindful Earth Farm is a multi-family intentional community located on a six acre certified organic and biodynamic permaculture farm outside of Ashland Oregon. We currently have two families and two additional indivuals living on the farm as well as goats, chickens, guinea hens, dogs and a few cats. Although the farm has worn many cash hats over the last ten years, from a market garden, to a hemp farm, a hemp seed breeding research facility, and most recently a heritage grain research farm, the more permanent aspects of the farm including the food forests and horticulture have continued to evolve despite historic droughts and high temperatures over the last couple of years. With the abundant rain we received earlier this year, we are experiencing a bountiful harvest of fruits, berries and nuts in addition to plentiful veggies from our annual garden spaces. As the focus from agricultural production has lifted, The Mindful Earth Alliance is now shifting intent towards using the existing farm as a teaching facility. We currently offer classes and workshops in biodynamic and “bio-resonant” farming, permaculture, natural building as well as kids camps, song circles and African drumming.
