Viva Sankofa is a 72 acre ranch stay near Sequoia-Kings (SEKI) Canyon Nat'l Parks. Rescued/EOL horses, sheep, chickens, and ducks freely roam the property. The property has a communal clubhouse with a fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, firepit, hot/cold showers, compost and pit toilets, and an above ground swimming pool. Our business is operated by LGBTQ and POC individuals, and we are committed to inclusivity and respect for people from all backgrounds.
30 minutes from park entrance, 20 min from nearby lakes, 50 minutes from Fresno. 3 hrs from SF, 3.5 from LA. We have running hot/cold water for our outdoor shower but NO flushable toilets. We have pit and compost toilets filled with cedar shavings for now!
Our priorities:
1. Wildfire prevention
2. Community building
3. Environmentalism and Sustainability
If you're coming July-Mid August please know it is HOT (95 average/75 night) and wildfires are a consistent threat. With that, wildfire prevention is a high priority. We have a lot of projects we have started and could use all the help we can get!
Some of those are:
- invasive species management
- tiny home building
- gardening/greenhouse building
- event space building
- vertical agriculture
- chicken farming (underway and we have a lot of eggs to eat and share!)
- raising livestock
- medicinal plant growing + onsite apothecary
- bus conversion site
- tool and machinery share/rental
Come book a cabin, park a bus, bring a tent, bring your cat/dog! We know the world is dark right now and we are just trying to bring a little light.
