In 1972 Jack & Adrienne Campbell bought their first 40 acre forested foothold in the Coastal Mountain Range west of the town of Laytonville with the idea of building a sustainable family compound. Ranch grew to more than 400 total acres of some of Mendocino's most lush forest. The Ranch sits at about 2000 feet elevation in the mountains between Laytonville and the coast. With the ocean only 12 miles due west and commanding a spot near the top of the mountain range, the Ranch sits in the epicenter of spectacular redwood production land. There is currently an estimated 2 million board feet (MBF) of timber split at 70% Douglas Fir and 30% Redwood and growing at around a rate of 3% to 4% per year compounded.
