The ranch

Sienna Ranch is a privately owned 21-acre ranch in Lafayette, CA near the intersection of Hwy 680 and 24. We are centrally located, 2 minutes from the freeway, and just fifteen minutes from Oakland, Berkeley and San Ramon. We are a family run business whose focus is on youth, families, environment, and community. Our innovative programs and passionate staff are aimed at making a positive impact on all those who come here.

Arrival Zone

Classroom spaces

Sienna Ranch is a 100% outdoor program (with the exception of our woodshop and nature museum!). Our outdoor classrooms include covered picnic tables and stump circles. Learn about how we teach in all weather.

Horse Riding Areas

Our horseback riding facilities consist of our large 75′ X 100′ outdoor arena nestled in a valley with sand footing and a fantastic view of Mt Diablo.   We also have a 65′ round pen with shade screens, and an outdoor classroom with shaded cross ties and picnic tables. Check out our Horse Connection and Private Lesson program.

Fire Building Deck 

The perfect place to gather when the weather is wet, our nature programs especially love to use the fire building deck as a space to light a fire, tell stories, and eat snack. During our winter session nature classes, students learn fire building skills including fire safety, building techniques, and cooking over a campfire. In the dry summer/fall seasons the fire deck transforms into our mud kitchen and shaded craft space.

Animals

Our animal friends make the Ranch a special, memorable place for everyone who visits us. Our programs focus on building relationships with our animals, and learning how to respectfully care for the creatures who make the ranch so magical. Sienna Ranch is currently home to chickens, ducks, goats, sheep, horses, our resident barn cats, as well as a variety of wildlife. Meet our animals!

Pottery, Archery & Woodshop Zones

Pottery happens at a picnic area under a trellis which we call our pottery tables.

Archery class takes place at our shaded Archery range near the arena.  With a maximum range length of 100 feet, our students have plenty of room to develop their skills.

Woodshop class takes place mainly in our woodshop. They learn tool safety first and then dive into creating, tinkering, and building.
