About us

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.
We meet every Saturday as a group. Official hours for Meetup are Noon to 2pm, but we generally stay longer.
This group is for education and community
Learn by doing. This is a hands-on experience. We learn by doing whatever needs doing at the time of year the work needs doing.
We learn what is possible to grow in this area, including organic edibles, flowers and natives.
W incorporate biointensive, biodynamic and permaculture principles for sustainable land stewardship.
We currently do not sell our food. Once per year we have a plant sale and that generates income to operate the farm for a year. Food is shared with the team first, then goes to local elementary schools and food banks.
