An Oasis of Possibilities

article_solarlivingcenterOur Solar Living Center in Hopland, California is a "must-see" stop on the itinerary of numerous travelers making their way up Highway 101. Just 2 hours north of San Francisco, in the heart of Northern California's wine country, this gorgeous 12-acre campus is a world-famous demonstration site for renewable energy, alternative fuels, green building, permaculture, and sustainable living technologies.

It is also home to the non-profit Solar Living Institute, an educational organization whose mission is to promote sustainable living through inspirational environmental education. Nearly 200,000 people visit the Center annually.

The Solar Living Center is open seven days a week and 362 days per year (closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Years Day) and admission is free to the general public, however, suggestion donations are greatly appreciated.
