Your Impact
Sugarloaf Ridge State Park is operated by Sonoma Ecology Center, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. While Sugarloaf is a California State Park, it does not receive operational funding from the State. It is our visitors, donors, volunteers, and members who make it possible for us to keep Sugarloaf Ridge State Park open for the community to enjoy.
Since 2012, Sonoma Ecology Center has worked to make the park accessible and welcoming to a broader audience through community-focused programs, such as The Senderos Program which engages the Spanish-speaking community, The Slow Journeys Program which offers accessible nature hikes and events on flat, smooth paths, and The ParkRx Program which provides over 1,000 participants annually free access to approximately 90 activities, including fitness hiking series, yoga hikes, Tai Chi classes, and forest therapy sessions, all prescribed by medical providers.
Sugarloaf Ridge State Park has earned recognition as a role model in establishing impactful relationships with the local Native American tribe, the Mishewal-Wappo. This relationship is grounded in respect, patience, and courage.
