Black Bear Ranch is a commune in Northern California that was founded in 1968 by a group of people who wanted to live together and create a different kind of community. The people in the commune work together to grow their own food, build their own homes, and create their own clothes. They share their resources and ideas to make sure everyone in the community is happy and healthy. Black Bear Ranch is a place for people to come together and share their ideas and experiences with each other in a safe and supportive environment.
