WAKAMATSU OPEN FARM DAY

Saturday, November 21st 10am-2pm

Experience Wakamatsu Farm, a 272-acre living history destination nestled in Gold Hill, just 2.5 miles from the heart of gold discovery in Coloma, CA. For thousands of years, the land was home to the Indigenous Nisenan people before serving as a homestead for early European pioneers. Its most famous chapter began in 1869, when it became the site of the first Japanese colony in America and the birthplace of the first Japanese American. Now preserved and operated by ARC, the farm bridges the past with the present, connecting people across borders and through time. Farm access is exclusive to private tours and public events like Open Farm Days, when you can freely roam the land while discovering its many fascinating features. Points of interest are mainly outdoors, reached by dirt trail or unpaved road over generally flat terrain. Amenities are limited, so plan for rugged outdoor leisure. Please manage your own trash and leave the land better than you find it. Steady rain or temperatures over 100 degrees will cancel. Check ARC’s event calendar for updates. For private tours, please call 530-621-1224. Find out more at: ARConservancy.org/Wakamatsu. Cost: $10 per vehicle. Buses and large vans are $5 per person. All proceeds directly benefit Wakamatsu Farm. A detailed email will be sent once you register online. REGISTRATION LINK
