  Site Information
 

Ragle Ranch Park is located on Ragle Rd. in the city of Sebastopol, Sonoma County, CA. This is a beautiful county park with lots of area under the spreading oaks. The central park area is surrounded by ball fields, soccer fields, hiking trails and tennis courts. The site is ideal for our Country Fair but be aware that it is located on dirt and grass which can be uneven and dusty. We do everything we can to minimize the dust.
