Truffle Orchard

Clos Racines Orchard is a 30-acre organic truffle farm in Northern California. The farm—a dream of two first—time farmers—will host overnight culinary retreats and weddings during the truffle off-season, with vegetable gardens and naturalized orchards offering seasonal fare. To break the flatness of the site, we situated the main house and guest area at the edge of a new one acre pond. Undulating berms allow for periodic sightlines into the orchards. The project’s scope of work includes masterplanning, site design, planting design, seed mix specifications and construction observation.
