Luther Burbank's Gold Ridge Experiment Farm, Demonstration farm in Sebastopol, US.
The three-acre property at 7777 Bodega Avenue features a caretaker's cottage, barn, potting shed, and over 250 plant specimens from Burbank's experiments.
Luther Burbank established this experimental farm in 1885, conducting more than 60,000 plant breeding experiments with a team of 20 workers until 1926.
