Stewarding the land
Our Homestead
Penned horses await ongoing farmland responsibility at the barn where our Tasting of Place stands today. Campovida was an original farm sourcing a variety of fruit olive trees, hops, and walnut groves fed from the Russian River aquifer that runs through the estate.
Indigenous Pomo
We acknowledge that we gather on the ancestral lands of the Pomo peoples — in particular the land of the Hopland Band of Pomo Indians (Sho-Ka-Wah or “East of the River”) whose main village of Shanel (“of the roundhouse”) is now Hopland, California.
We pay our respects to the elders - past, present, and emerging of the Pomo nations, and recognize their enduring connection to this land, its waters, plants, animals, and the climate shaped by generations of care.
We further recognize that the establishment of Campovida has occurred within a broader history of colonial settlement, land dispossession, and ongoing efforts for healing, sovereignty, and cultural revitalization by Indigenous communities. We commit ourselves to being mindful of this history and we pledge to uphold respect for the land, to listen to and support Indigenous voices, and to foster a relationship with place grounded in humility, gratitude, and responsibility.
HOPLAND - 1890
The original town slowly grew in quiet prominence until the building of the Northwest Pacific railway connected its bountiful acreage to the bustling San Francisco (and thirsty) Bay Area. Renowned for beer’s key ingredient - Hops - in 1896 Hopland was, well, hoppin’.
Hopland today, you can feel the frontier-town rhythm: the old hotel across from the railway-era depot site, the antique bracketed barns, the shopfronts with character and patina rather than generic big-chain architecture. It’s a town small in size but rich in layered story. It is a tiny hamlet for exploration.
Family Ties
While the town cooled from prohibition laws in the 1920s - immigrant families from across Europe took root in Northern California and began planting first for themselves, and soon the rebirth of the American wine industry. Some of these families have names you might recognize - Feliz, Peck, Haas, Fetzer
BETTING THE FARM
Today the Campovida homestead is many things - but first and foremost continues the legacy of life on the farm. It’s been more than a decade since Anna & Gary have opened to share their land and fruits of labor - and they invite you to invest in the next generation of Campovida wine, olive oil, honey, lavender and all their hand-made organic farm products.
