Russian River, Weston Ranch
WESTON RANCH Healdsburg, California
The Weston Ranch is a spectacular 1,160 acre ranch across the Russian River from Fitch Mountain and the City of Healdsburg. From its ridgeline locations it commands 360 views including Fitch Mountain to the west, Alexander Valley to the north, the entire Santa Rosa Plain to the southwest and eastward to Mount St. Helena. The Weston family entered a perpetual conservation easement agreement with The Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District in 1996 to protect the property’s outstanding natural landscapes and its continuing agricultural uses.
The Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District was formed in 1990 by a vote of the people of Sonoma County to help halt the growing loss of farmland and natural scenic landscapes in the County. By the end of 1998 the District had protected over 11 properties totaling 28,000 acres. For more information contact the District at (707) 524-7360
Sacred Taos Mountain
“…Stuppin’s paintings produce a serotonin rush of pleasure. In part this comes from the kind of naivete or innocence they embody, and in part comes from their visual richness. But there is more at work on these surfaces. Stuppin employs a series of compositional strategies-rhythmic patterns and careful juxtapositions of color-calculated to capture and reveal the essential unifying principals of the natural world. The paintings provide us with a sense of sacredness inherent in each moment and each place, to which we are invited, along with the artist, to feel, to contemplate, and to revere.” Miriam Roberts, Santa Fe

St. Helena, Pine Flat Road
McCORD RANCH MAYACAMAS MOUNTAIN SANCTUARY Pine Flat Road, Sonoma County, California
The 3,053 acre McCord Ranch was protected by a conservation easement in 1992 by the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District in cooperation with the Sonoma Land Trust. The spectacular ridgeline ranch runs from the Headwaters of Little Sulphar Creek at Red Hill on Pine Flat Road to Hwy 128 at the North end of Knights Valley. Title to the upper 1,300 acre portion of this former cattle and sheep ranch passed to the National Audobon Society in 1994 and is now managed as the Mayacamas Sanctuary. In the mid 1800s, Richard Henry Dana, the distinguished American novelist, extolled the spectacular landscape of the ranch, including the large ‘weeping valley oaks’ in an article about an overland trip to the Geysers from Calistoga. Expansive views of the Alexander and Knights Valleys and Mt. St. Helena abound from the property.
