The Place

We enter the property through an ancient olive grove that opens out into a creekside meadow and a valley floor that hosts gardens and farm buildings. But the vast majority of the property is wilderness, which climbs steeply towards Skyline Ridge. That is where Wild Recovery will be. We will go up along the creek to the Black Mountain Trail, which will take us to the upper meadow for our meeting.
