About

[edit]

The Farm was founded in 2011, by Dave West, an aerospace engineer.[3] The original location of the farm was at the corner of Rainbow Dr and Bubb Rd in Cupertino, California.[4] The farm moved in 2015 to Santa Rosa, California.

Hollyhill Hummingbird Farm's symbol of a hummingbird comes from the philosophy of symbiosis.[5] The Farm grows fruit, vegetables, nuts, herbs, and grains with the help of community volunteers.[6]
