Slow it down

The club sits on a sprawling 5-acre property, mere minutes away from the serene and majestic Yuba River. Surrounded by lush greenery and imbued with the tranquil sounds of nature, The Here & Now provides an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

At the heart of The Here & Now's allure are its meticulously designed amenities, perfect for rejuvenating the mind, body, and soul. Picture yourself soaking in inviting hot tubs beneath a canopy of stars, embracing the invigorating sensation of cold plunges, and indulging in the cleansing heat of saunas, all crafted to promote relaxation and inner harmony.

Embrace nature

For those seeking a closer connection with nature, the retreat club offers a series of camping areas where members can immerse themselves in the outdoors, under the guidance of experienced outdoor enthusiasts. Gather around the crackling firepits, share stories, and forge lifelong friendships in the warmth of the campfire glow.

From wellness workshops and yoga retreats to creative arts and culinary experiences, there is always something new and exciting happening within the community. 

The Here & Now is more than just a destination; it's a sanctuary where like-minded individuals come together to forge meaningful connections, find inner peace, and embrace the wonders of the natural world.

About Us

At the Homestead Collective, we are a community united by a shared commitment to sustainable living, collective growth, and the land that nurtures us.

Our mission is to create a thriving, regenerative ecosystem where individuals and families come together to support one another and the earth through a community-supported land model.

By offering access to the land’s resources—whether through shared gardens, work-trade agreements, or land-based learning—we empower members to contribute to a flourishing, self-sustaining community.

Through collaboration and collective stewardship, we aim to cultivate not just food and resources, but also meaningful connections, shared wisdom, and a deep sense of belonging to both each other and the earth.

The intention behind The Here & Now is simple yet profound—to create a space where busy souls can find reprieve, where they can rediscover their inner child, and where they can tap into the transformative power of nature. We believe that having a dedicated space to retreat and recharge is not just a luxury; it is an absolute necessity for leading a fulfilled and purposeful life.
