At 10:38 PM on August 17th part of what became the Hennessey Fire and the LNU Lightning Complex ran through their property. The scene was apocalyptic. They had no warning. The only reason Jasmine and her family survived, at all, was the fact that Jasmine had a window open and heard the fire approaching the house.

Beekeeper, Clay Ford, tragically lost 73 of 81 bee hives when the LNU Complex fire raced through Pleasants Valley last week.

Clay has spent 8 years cultivating and caring for the bees.  Clay admitted, "It was heartbreaking to see the devastation. The bees never had a chance."

Clay vows to reestablish bee colonies and in his words,  "The bees will fly again!"

Zinger Ranch lost their chicken coop and some animals. Their well was destroyed so they have no water or electricity for any of the animals.

Former city slickers, they have been learning about regenerative agriculture and rescuing farm animals since moving to Vacaville two years ago. They had been in the process of becoming a non-profit in order to help care for more animals and to welcome volunteers onto the property. Their ultimate goal is to connect trauma survivors and their families with their rescued farm animals, especially in the first responder community.

People in Pleasant Valley California were hit with a huge wildfire causing fields to go up and flames and houses/barns are now gone due to the fires. We need help on rebuilding and getting our homes back. Please leave a donation.

The Silent Stay Retreat Center burned down. You can make a tax-deductible donation to help them rebuild. 

With much sadness we share with you that our beautiful retreat center has been destroyed in the recent fire.  We are safe and well but the whole retreat center is gone.  So much love has been shared on the property.  This love is always with all of us. One step at a time, we continue...

On 8/19/2020 Sarah Hawkins and Andy Pestana of CastleRock ND suffered the unimaginable loss of their home, farm and many of their animals from wild fires in CA. Please support.

We are asking for funds to help us rebuild. Whether it's back on Cantelow Rd in Vacaville or somewhere else..we are desperate to be reunited with the animals that we promised to care for, for the rest of their lives.

The people & the animals are okay but they lost their home, their barn, and two 5th wheels.

Mark & Kendall are fine but they lost their house.

La Borgata lost their vineyard 2 weeks before harvest, their winery, their distillery, all of the equipment and inventory.

I’m writing this post with a heavy heart filled with disbelief. On August 19, 2020 at 1:30am we woke up to the heavy smell of burnt ashes and the realization of a massive wildfire in front of our eyes. The only thing I could think of in that moment was getting my family out of the house as fast and safely as possible. With nothing else besides the clothes on our backs, we evacuated from our homes. We were filled with terror and tears, not knowing if or when we’ll be able to return.
