Path to Freedom is our family home, a private residence and home business located in Pasadena, California {in the foothills above Los Angeles}.
We ask that you respect our daily schedule because we are not set up to receive drop-in visits. You must make an appointment prior to visiting our home.

Would you like to get involved in this homegrown revolution?
How you can help
We regret that tours have been suspended until further notice. As our project gained recognition, we began to receive many requests for tours until it was no longer feasible for us to allow visitors due to time restraints. We are currently involved in home construction, the redesigning of the yard for better gardening efficiency, and the development of new sustainable projects to be implemented into the urban homestead which would further reduce our dependency on the "system."
It was an unexpected treat to meet you and to view the wonderful work you've done with your land! It's so reassuring to meet folks like yourself who are striving for right livelihood and sustainability.
~ Wendy more comments
We are deeply apologetic for not being able to share the homestead with others at this point and while we desire to promote the cause, we are a viable, working homestead - not a showplace that depends on income from tours to make our living. The time taken out for tours is time away from our work, which means decreased production from the garden and lost time for projects around the homestead. We want our place to become an educational tool but the sacrifice of time at this point is too great.
Note: If you really want to see our homestead and talk with us, we recommend you to sign up for one of our scheduled events
Path to Freedom offers a wide range of events: classes in sustainability; film screenings; lectures, workshops, community functions, and more.
