Review for The Trust For Hidden Villa, Los Altos Hills, CA, USA
Hidden Villa is a transformative place. Although I was inclined toward sustainability and protecting the environment, Hidden Villa has made me passionate about it. The sustainable architecture of its buildings is inspiring (I'd never heard of a straw building before! Eye-opening!). The land itself is beautiful. The environmental education programs are for youth, but have educated me as an adult, as well -- I've learned much more about farming and biology through these programs and even by becoming a shareholder in Hidden Villa's Community Supported Agriculture Program -- shareholders get weekly explanations of the organic produce they're receiving, including farming methods, challenges, information about the fruits and vegetables themselves, and even recipes. And finally, I've never worked with such a quantity of some of the nicest, most intelligent people you'll ever meet.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
not only volunteering, but participating in weekend programs ranging from making Vietnamese spring rolls to yule logs. My kids have attended (and loved)Hidden Villa's summer camp, the oldest multicultural and racially integrated summer camp in the country
