Gobbi is the ranch most people see, on the southeast corner of Highway 101 and Gobbi Street in the flatland of Ukiah. It had been fallow for over thirty years when we planted it in 1998. It was certified organic in 2001. The south side of the field has well drained clay soils. The north field has a more sandy soil which allows for good drainage. Three agricultrual wells provide drip irrigation for the entire ranch and fill a ten acre foot pond that supplies water for overhead sprinkler irrigation and frost protection.
