Vital Energy

We provide educational programs and community celebrations for more than 10,000 visitors annually. Our signature programs include a residential leadership fellowship program for young adults and a farm-based summer camp for youth ages 3-12. We also offer an exciting menu of farm-based programs for school groups and other organizations, and host open-to-the-public community celebrations for most Jewish holidays.

​Our organic farm produces a diverse yield of fruits, vegetables, and eggs, all of which we donate to those in the community in need through our weekly Free Farm Stand.

The Living Room is the only day center in Sonoma County specifically serving homeless and at-risk women and their children.

The Mission of The Living Room is to ease adversity and promote stability, dignity and self-reliance for women and children who are homeless, or at-risk of homelessness, in Sonoma County.

The Living Room welcomes homeless and at-risk women and their children into a warm and safe environment during the day when overnight shelters are closed. Caring staff and volunteers offer a lifeline during a time of crisis. Whether homeless for some time, newly homeless, or on the verge homelessness, women of all ages and mothers with children are greeted with love and understanding. Mother’s appreciate the child-friendly environment where they receive support while their children engage with toys and learning activities.

The Living Room provides nutritious meals and essential daily needs, health care education, parenting skills, job search skills, computer and mail access. We also provide referrals to community resources for temporary shelter, housing, medical and mental health care, and many other vital services.
