"There is a marvelous community volunteer effort here. We have a grange, club for adults, for kids and a volunteer library. We have a cultural center, a farmers market, and nationally famous sausage and meat. It's quiet and unique here. Picture apple orchards meet the redwoods. I adore my neighbors and my sense of safety and the peace."
