A beautiful 70-acre farm located in the heart of Scott Valley along French Creek, where you can go swimming, but no fishing. Alpine lakes close by in the Russian and Marble Mountain wilderness areas for hiking and fishing. The Pacific Crest trail can be partially hiked from the top of Scott Mt. to our western town of Etna (just 4 miles up the road) established during the gold rush in 1853. My hay fields are being grazed by 20 pairs of cows to replenish the soil at present. I grow organic vegetables and fruit trees, where I welcome my guests to help in the garden. Blackberry picking in the summer is a game to beat the birds! Many species of birds call my farm home. Many heritage apple trees planted by Johnny Appleseed grace my front lawn and lower pasture. Fall is apple picking time. The farm was started in 1926. My 100-year-old haying barn is in the process of being restored, keeping the unique feature of a stream running through it. Quiver, my horse, is the sole occupant with visits from Mr. Cream, the feral cat and my faithful rescue German Shepherd, General Rommel. I am also remodeling the 100-year-old farmhouse with a modern kitchen where soon I will have a cooking school. Relaxing on the lawn swing looking south to the snow-capped mountains of the Trinity Alps wilderness area is a perfect way to end the day!
