Go to Part 1 . ----------------This is Part 2--------------Go to Part 3

The Sacramento River Watershed contains one of the most diverse and rich agricultural areas in the world. 

Shaped like a Grizzly Bear with a Salmon in its mouth, the Sacramento River Watershed

With rich alluvial soils in the valley that streach over 150 miles long, this watershed includes foothill and mountain regions that host a cornucopia of climates, ecological niches, resources as well as challenges. 


This Agrarian Boot Camp (ABC) involves riding down the spine of the Grizzly on Bikes or Kayaks, from Redding to Sacramento 165 miles as the crow flies and straddling the Sacramento River. 


Each trip will take 3 weeks.

Grange Halls and Farms will serve as base camps along the way.

And we will end at the California State Grange Offices in Sacramento with a focus on Food and Health Policy development and deployment for local sustainable food systems.

This intensive 3 week boot camp experience will serve to boot strap and kick start new farmer/ranchers through an immersive agrarian exploration of resources and possibilities to spawn a desperately needed new generation of American Farmer/Ranchers.
