Amazing Location...
The site for this course is  Four Elements Organic Farm, a certified Organic Farm and an innovative Natural Building Learning Center nestled in the steep chaparral hills of California's Central Coast.

Halfway between San Francisco and Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo is America's coastal heartland, where agriculture and ranching are still important parts of life. From the rich bottom lands of its river valleys to the rolling hills and jagged peaks of the ancient volcanic landscape, microclimates abound, and on the 47 acres of Four Elements Farm, the Mediterranean climate allows a wide selection of fruits and vegetables to grow.

* Optional Field Trips, Beaches, Wine Tasting, Farmers Markets, EarthDay Festival and Big Sur Coast Excursion.
* Hands-On Learning Opportunities will also be available on the farm.
