Sonoma County
Sonoma County is a playground for a variety of interests, located an hour or so drive north of San Francisco in Northern California. Settled in the North Coast ranges, it spans both coast and inland, featuring microclimates among the long stretches of wild Pacific sea coast, dense redwood forest, orchards, vineyards, and grassy hills dotted with decidulous trees and brush.
There are touristic and remote towns of interest near CSHS, namely Guerneville, Sebastopol, Occidental, Bodega Bay, Santa Rosa, Petaluma and Healdsburg, all with their own personality. Driving in Sonoma you may find yourself on the coastal CA Route 1 or US Route 101 as well as CA Route 116, CA Route 12, and others. The plant and wildlife in Sonoma is a universe in itself, filled with deer, fox, mountain lion, coyote, raptors, song birds... madrone, bay laurel, redwood, oak, manzanita, poison oak, nettles, orchids... to name only a few. The summers are dry, with a heavy rain season starting in late fall and lasting until around April, filling the rivers, coating things with mud, and bringing the forests to an emerald green splendor blooming with edible & inedible fungi.
