  Ojai Rancho Inn

  Ojai, CA 93023, USA

  Visitors and locals alike congregate in the valley of the moon, at the foot of the Topatopa Mountains, which serves as a meeting point for both. The Ojai Rancho Inn has the feel of a summer camp for grown-ups. Combined with the spiritual vortex of Ojai, the 50's ranch style architecture makes for a fun destination in the valley of the moon. Keeping in mind Ojai's rich history as a spiritual and artistic community, as well as its current appeal as such, we sought to bring these aspects together through the use of lighting, artwork, music, and the overall feel of the space. We believe that the artists who bring life to the Rancho are just as important to its character as the energy that our guests bring to the property on a daily basis. In the event that you are arriving from Highway 33, we are located at the entrance to Ojai. Enjoy a quick 5 minute bike ride into town or a 15-minute walk along the walking path that runs directly behind our building to get into town. Go for a walk around the neighborhood, or sit by the pool and read a book. You can also go on a hike or get cozy by the fire pit. Whatever it is that you want to accomplish, it will almost certainly be simple. With only 17 guest rooms, it is a small and intimate property where our guests are welcomed as members of our extended family. Whether you're visiting us for the first time or are a frequent visitor, we look forward to the memories you'll make with us in the future.

  De Tierra Vineyards

  Sonoma, CA 95476, USA

  Tom Russell, an agriculture professional from Phoenix, Arizona, founded De Tierra Vineyards in the Salinas Valley in 1998 as an organic grape-growing company. In the early 1990s, Russell converted the majority of his conventional row crop vegetable farm to organic, and he had considerable success in the California market. Russell was passionate about wine and farming, and he wanted to learn more about the advantages of organic wine grape growing. Russell teamed up with Lucio Gomiero, a friend and winemaker from Vignalta Italy, to create an organic vineyard in the Corral de Tierra Valley. A 40-acre farm with a south-west facing orientation was chosen, about 15 miles from the Salinas Valley. De Tierra Vineyards was founded as a result of this collaboration. De Tierra began as a shared dream among good friends, and has since grown into a thriving artisanal brand with distribution in over 20 states, numerous awards, an active wine club, and a burgeoning team of experienced wine enthusiasts at its helm. Dan McDonnal and Alix Lynn Bosch are the current owners of De Tierra. De Tierra produces award-winning, hand-harvested wines to share from Monterey County's unique terroir. De Tierra focuses on offering the best depiction "of the land," as the name says. Great wines start in the vineyard, and their purpose is to transfer the terroir's distinctive qualities into great wine. Dan and Alix are committed to continuing De Tierra's tradition of creating high-quality boutique wines. De Tierra produces nine different varieties. They use fruit from high-quality vineyards throughout Monterey County and beyond to make all of their wines. De Tierra's objective is to create handcrafted, premium wines using California's greatest fruit. In Carmel-by-the-Sea, they have a tasting room.
