ACTIVITIES throughout the weekend:
 

• Nightly pre-dinner cocktail hour (Friday & Saturday): Enjoy a signature cocktail, beer or wine and delicious locally-sourced and lovingly made appetizers while listening to our afternoon sets (The China Cats on Friday and The Real Sarahs on Saturday). This is a great way to wind down into the evening and connect with everyone at the event.

• Ancient Oak Hike with Evan Engber: Evan is the found of BioEngineering Associates, Inc. and a Hog Farm resident. Evan has spent several decades working on and exploring our land. This year he will take us out to visit the oldest oak tree on the Black Oak Ranch, a majestic valley oak that is at least 500 years old! This flat hike will start out across our pasture/sports field, across Ten Mile Creek and out through the beautiful creekside woodlands that make up our campground for our larger festivals and out to the ancient oak.

​​

• Release the Oaks! Forest Restoration Hike Join fire ecologist and Hog Farm Family member, Eamon Engber, for a short hike through a Douglas-fir/black oak forest that was recently thinned and pile burned to reduce fire hazard and restore forest composition. We will tour the 30 acre project area and discuss forest resiliency, fire hazard, and fuels management in the face of a changing climate. We will also identify trees and understory plants, talk fire ecology, and discuss management options for small landowners. Mostly flat except for one arduous, but short (100) meter hill at the start.
