Camp Cool
“The pristine soils had never before been planted to crops. ”
A CampCool family farm began in 1999 when environmental activists Noel Manners and Roderick Green purchased a logged-over mountain property near Covelo, Mendocino County from a local lumberman and planted a small marijuana garden allowed by California’s medical Cannabis law, Prop. 215.
Our goal was to restore the forest and grow our own food and medicine free from chemicals and pollutants. This remote off-the-grid land is blessed with abundant artesian water and surrounded by forests.

Back in ‘99, my family lived here in a tent, showered outdoors and in the evening powered a single lamp from our pickup truck’s battery. Later we moved into a tiny 1968 travel trailer and after several years we constructed the solar powered barn/home combo that we live in today.
Our plants are grown from seeds, under the sun and harvested at peak fluorescence in the fall. We choose our cultivars carefully and have new varieties as well as legacy strains available.
