Who We Are

Established in December of 1998, Pacifica is located in the beautiful and amazingly bio-diverse Klamath – Siskiyou Region of Southwestern Oregon. Sited in the Applegate /Williams Valley, Pacifica’s total of 540 historic acres are dedicated to providing education about our natural environment while enhancing the learner’s understanding and appreciation of the natural world and how it relates to daily life.

Our Vision

Education

Experiential learning for all ages through classes, camps and seminars, interactive interpretive trails and natural science outreach to elementary school students.

Nature Center

210 acres of substantially unaltered native habitat (including riparian, Douglas Fir forest, oak savannah and chaparral) serving as a laboratory for study, observation and connection with the natural world and its inhabitants.

Botanical Garden

Focused on the flora of the Klamath – Siskiyou bio – region, the goal for the garden is plantings based on 5,000 different kinds of trees and other plants from around the world. This collection will be the basis of Pacifica’s living museum.

Community and Arts Center

A 9000 sq. foot building is dedicated to community education, celebrations and gathering. It also houses the Pacifica Arts Guild and Caterpillar program offices.

Sustainability

Ray and Peg Prag, two of Pacifica’s founders, will gift their business, Forestfarm Nursery, to Pacifica upon the completion of new nursery facilities at Pacifica. Forestfarm is well-recognized throughout the USA for the diversity and quality of the plants they sell. This nursery collection will parent Pacifica’s Botanical Gardens and provide a source of continued support for Pacifica’s overall vision.
