Mid Summer's Eve Celebration
Come celebrate the summer with your friends at Rock Bottom Ranch! Learn new skills like friction-fire and mask-making as you prepare for this potluck feast which will include harvests from RBR. Archery shoot-out, drumming and story-telling around the fire are sure to be the highlights of this evening under the stars. We hope to see you on Saturday, July 18th! More information.
Toklat Residency
Come visit our resident artists and scholars as they come to Toklat to contemplate, work, and share their passions. Visit with cooking and journaling instructor and itinerant Chef Maria Hodkins from July 11th - 24th. Right after that come spend some time gazing at the night sky with an astronomer and musician extraordinaire - Dr. Cherilynn Morrow.
Ecological Gardening
Partnership between RBR and Common Sense Regeneration Project is bringing you a new summer series of permaculture workshops at RBR. Next workshop is July 11 - register now! Workshops will help you start your own garden, teach you how to take care of it so you can harvest and enjoy its fruits into the Fall. More information about the series.
