Our mission is to reconnect people with the planet by working from the ground up, using our community garden to highlight the vital link between healthy food, ecosystems, and human wellness.
Our focus is on serving underrepresented communities, including Title I schoolchildren and low-income families, providing access to fresh, regeneratively grown food and outdoor education.
Our garden produces a variety of crops, including zucchini, cucumbers, peppers, watermelons, and tomatoes. We aim to distribute over 5,000 pounds of fresh food to communities beyond Cazadero by next year!
With support from the Community Foundation Sonoma County, we will provide an immersive education experience in sustainable agriculture, indigenous practices, and environmental stewardship to elementary school children.
Join a community of practice with leaders who are working on transforming their businesses and organizations to include nature’s voice, and to work creatively to address the challenges of the simultaneous changes in the world.

Our agroforest and vegetable gardens, spanning 5 acres, will produce over 4,000 pounds of food to benefit local communities, with 50 varieties of plants and fruits by December 2024.
Expanding Outdoor Education: Teravana’s goal is to extend our outdoor education programs to more K-12 schools and offer vocational training for young people entering the green jobs market.
Promoting Environmental Awareness: Through our programs, we aim to raise awareness about the relationship between healthy bodies and healthy ecosystems, emphasizing the importance of balanced soil and mindful agricultural practices.
