Relationship Building
We have deep roots in Sonoma County with local historians, artists, business owners, ecological non-profits, and indigenous tribes who contribute to the beauty, culture, and experience of this healing path. Without them, we wouldn’t be the Camino de Sonoma. We will continue to foster these relationships in ways that honor the land and give back to it for all the ways that it has given so much to us.
We welcome you to contact us with any questions and to begin the journey.
