Review:

Located within the Santa Ynez Valley, Sedgwick Reserve is a world-class research, conservation, and education facility that is one of the largest and most diverse reserves of its kind in the United States.

The reserve extends over nine miles and is rich in natural resources; other aspects include two complete watersheds and a telescope.

It’s the perfect place for visitors of all ages to come learn about the outdoors through hands-on investigations and explorations of the area.

Though it is generally closed to the public, there are several classes and special events held in the Sedgwick Reserve throughout the year.
