Sequoia Nature & History Adventures, Orangevale

Ranger Bruce knows the natural world of Sacramento like the back of his hand. As a retired park ranger naturalist, he can take you to every waterfall, towering tree, and historic site as part of his 21 nature classes. The classes focus on topics ranging from California Indians and wild edible plants to astronomy and trees. Gaze upon the past at Coloma, a gold discovery site, or explore how wildflowers and insects interact to create new life every year. For an indoor adventure, try the State Capital or Sutter's Fort tours, or experiment to see why you really can't grow Sequoias in your kitchen.
