The Bishop's Ranch

Follow Westside Road out of town and keep climbing, past the vineyards, until the view opens onto 365 acres of oak and grassland. The Episcopal Diocese bought the first 63 acres here in 1947 from a working ranch that ran Percheron horses, a dairy, a lumber mill, and five thousand chickens. It has been a retreat ever since: a stone chapel from 1955, scattered cottages, long views down the valley, and the particular quiet of a place people drive to on purpose.
October light on that hillside at 5:30 is the whole argument. Bring a layer.
Sip & Mingle is TLC SoCo's monthly evening gathering — a space to breathe, connect, and show up as the full version of yourself, not a polished pitch.
Every event follows a rhythm that works. Doors open at 5:30 PM for casual arrivals and organic conversation. At 6:00, we come together for guided introductions, time to share what you're working on, ask for support, and practice putting your work into words. From 7:00 to 7:30, we return to open mingling — deeper conversations, natural follow-ups, and room to let things land.
Many events include a post-meeting experience from 7:30 to 8:30 PM, hosted by members of the community. These closing sessions have included sound healing, breathwork, creative practices, and more. Come as you are. No pressure, no pretense — space to be seen, supported, and in good company.
