Sebastopol’s Luther Burbank’s Experiment Farm — one of the little-known treasures of Sonoma County — is hallowed ground for anyone interested in gardens or plant cultivation.
It was here that, from 1885 to 1926, famed horticulturist Luther Burbank developed many of the 800-plus varieties of fruit and nut trees, flowers, and vegetables for which he’s celebrated, including the Santa Rosa plum, a Freestone peach, and the Shasta daisy. Today, a crew of volunteers keep the legacy - and the plants- preserved for the public.
