1 Sebastopol

Grapes have replaced

apples as the new cash

crop, but Sebastopol’s

farm-town identity

remains rooted in

the apple – evidence

the much-heralded

summertime Gravenstein

Apple Fair. The town

center feels suburban

because of traffic, but

a hippie tinge and

quirky shops such as a

beekeeping store give it

color.

Just north off Bodega

Ave, prepare to giggle

at the wacky Patrick

Russian River

& the Bohemian

Highway
