Hidden Villa

Every year 30,000 people participate in one of our formal programs. An additional 20,000 visitors come to our preserve annually to explore our farm and gardens or to hike on our eight miles of trails. Our constituents cover a wide spectrum of age, physical ability, geography, ethnicity, cultural and socio-economic backgrounds and our organic farm, rustic barns, newer sustainable structures and pristine riparian, woodland and chaparral wilderness provide opportunities to experience the beauty of our environment on a first hand basis. -- hiddenvilla.org

Hidden Villa

Hidden Villa was founded by Frank and Josephine Duveneck, who purchased the land in 1924 and offered it as a gathering place for discussion, reflection, and incubation of social reform. Over the following decades, the Duvenecks established the first Hostel on the Pacific Coast (1937), the first multiracial summer camp (1945), and Hidden Villa’s Environmental Education Program (1970). The Trust for Hidden Villa was established as a nonprofit in 1960.-- hiddenvilla.org

Hidden Villa

Hidden Villa's story is a collection of many histories; the history of an inspirational and visionary family, the history of a local nonprofit organization, the history of our changing social values, and the history of the Bay Area, California, and the west. In all of these story lines, stewardship is a common theme. Hidden Villa offers a fixed lens with which we can look back to the earliest known stewards, the Ohlone people, up through the days of missionaries, logging, and stagecoach travel, to Hidden Villa as a nonprofit organization working to inspire a just and sustainable future through our programs, land, and legacy. We hope you enjoy a glimpse into Hidden Villa’s past and join us in stewarding this gem for countless generations to come.-- hiddenvilla.org
