The Redwood Empire stretches from San Francisco to Humbolt Bay and onto the Oregon border. It is a rugged, sparsely populated area still dominated by forest, including the protected groves of Muir Woods and the massive forests of the Humboldt Redwoods. A redwood forest is a perfectly balanced ecosystem where every element works in harmony. The grandeur of the redwoods can be experienced throughout our Northern California backyard here in Sonoma County.
