SLIDE RANCH BACKGROUND:
Slide Ranch is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to planting kids in nature. Through our hands-on, farm-based environmental education for San Francisco Bay Area youth and families, we cultivate healthy bodies and minds and foster future generations of environmental stewards. By farming, cooking, caring for animals and exploring wilderness and the coast, we teach people of all ages to see the connection between their own health, a healthy food system and a healthy environment. Slide Ranch serves 10,000 participants a year, with a special emphasis on low-income, urban populations who have limited opportunities for nature-based learning. Our educational farm and environmental preserve is located on the rugged and beautiful Marin County coast, just a thirty minute drive north of San Francisco, both isolated from and accessible to the urban San Francisco Bay Area. We work in rustic former farm buildings on our 134-acre site. We farm approximately ¾ of an acre on a hilly, terraced site with raised beds.
