Location
Quail Springs is located in the state of California 2 hours away from the city of Santa Barbara. Quail Springs, with over 25 staff members, is an educational environment-focused nonprofit that hosts programs and tours for all ages.
Demographics
Quail Springs draws students from their region as well as from around the world to learn from their educational site—from South India, where international development workers are organizing farms for children and adults orphaned with disabilities, to Oakland, where urban gardeners employ formerly incarcerated youth to use regenerative design in city-scapes. The places, the people, and the stories at Quail Springs are diverse and inspiring.
