Local, sustainable ranching in the heart of California Wine Country.
Owl Moon Ranch is a family-owned and operated ranch tucked between the Mendocino Range and the Mayacamas Mountains, ninety minutes north of San Francisco up Highway 101. Close enough to escape for a day, far enough to get properly lost in nature.
Grab a coffee in adorable Hopland, population 340, the gateway to Mendocino County, and sample wines from more than thirty local wineries on your way in. Cap your vacation with a return home through Anderson Valley, Yorkville Highlands, Sanel Valley and McDowell Valley.
Nestled in the center of Wine Country majesty and steeped in agriculture, Owl Moon Ranch is a gateway to nature.
Every row tells a different story. We tend the orchard the old way, a scattered, mixed planting rather than a single crop, so the land keeps its balance and the harvest keeps its character.
Some of our apples are heirlooms whose original names have long since been lost to time. We're still learning what they're called, one harvest at a time.
The Mendocino Range shelters a remarkable range of plant and animal life — a living, protected corner of California's natural inheritance.
Water is life for ranches and farming, especially in drought-stricken California. We work with our natural springs and rain accumulation to farm within our means, and to respect the water table we all share.
Purchase olive oil and other produce straight from our heirloom trees.
Oils, sachets, and small-batch goods made from our own lavender fields.
Wildflowers in spring, fruit in summer and fall, olives and vegetables come autumn — join a picking day.
Get involved and get hands-on. We harvest year round and frequently host picking days — a rare chance to show your children the wonder and necessity of local farming.
Ninety minutes north of San Francisco via US-101 — close enough for a day trip, far enough to escape.
