Luther Burbank's Gold Ridge Experiment Farm is the official name of the 3 acres (12,000 m2) that remain of the farm originally purchased in 1885 by famed plant breeder Luther Burbank (1849-1926) in an area of Sebastopol, California, formerly known as the "Gold Ridge District". To these 10 acres (40,000 m2), Burbank added 5 acres (20,000 m2) in 1904 and 3.046 acres (12,330 m2) in 1906 until, in 1923, failing health compelled him to sell 3.046 acres (12,330 m2) of his holdings. Burbank died in 1926.

  • La Luther Burbank's Gold Ridge Experiment Farm ( en español: Granja experimental Gold Ridge de Luther Burbank) es el nombre oficial de unos terrenos de 3 acres (12,000 m²), que proceden de una granja que originalmente fue comprada en 1885 por el reconocido horticultor, Luther Burbank (1849-1926), en un área localizada en el Condado de Sonoma, California. A los 10 acres (40,000 m²) que la granja tenía en un principio, Burbank añadió 5 acres (20,000 m²) en 1904 y 3.046 acres (12,330 m²) en 1906. En 1923 debido a problemas de salud se vio obligado a vender 3.046 acres (12,330 m²) de su propiedad. Burbank murió en 1926. En 1974, la viuda de Burbank, Elizabeth Waters Burbank (1888-1977), donó los restantes 15 acres (61.000 m²), a la Corporación de la Vivienda del Área de Sebastopol con el propósito de construir viviendas para personas de bajos ingresos, ancianos y discapacitados con la estipulación de que fueran preservados los 3 acres (12 000 m²), incluidos en el total de la propiedad que contienen el "Caretaker´s Cottage" (que se había construido un año o dos después de que una antigua casa de la propiedad quedó arrasada por el Terremoto de San Francisco de 1906), así como el granero y las macetas del cobertizo (destruido por un incendio a finales de 1960) y más de 250 especímenes vivos del trabajo de Burbank fueran salvaguardados dejándolos como un espacio histórico y hortícola, dedicado a la memoria de Burbank, para ser estudiado y disfrutado por las generaciones futuras. Actualmente esta granja es propiedad de la ciudad de Sebastopol, que está administrada por la "Western Sonoma County Historical Society" y mantenida en su totalidad por voluntarios. (es)

In 1974, Burbank's widow Elizabeth Waters Burbank (1888-1977) donated the remaining 15 acres (61,000 m2) to the Sebastopol Area Housing Corporation for the purpose of erecting low-income, senior, and disabled housing units with the stipulation that the 3-acre (12,000 m2) parcel containing the "Caretaker's Cottage" (that had been constructed a year or two after an older cottage on the property was destroyed by the 1906 earthquake), the barn, the potting shed (destroyed by fire in the late 1960s) and over 250 living specimens of Burbank's work be set aside and left undisturbed as a historical and horticultural area, dedicated to Burbank, to be studied and enjoyed by future generations. Presently owned by the City of Sebastopol, it is administrated by the Western Sonoma County Historical Society and maintained entirely by volunteers. (en)
