This bakery has somem of the best baked goods in the area. The prices are a little on the high side, but they use organic flours, and make all of their goods in house. Schat's bakery is Ukiah staple, just like their bread! If you get there early in the morning, you can get good deals on their day old goods!

Hike up the forested trails along a serene lush trail. As you hike over the crest of the hills, a grove opens up before you, and you find yourself amongst the tallest trees in the world., literally (verified in the early 2000's). Pack a picnic and enjoy the grandeur of these silent giants. It will take about 25 minutes to drive to the park, but it is well worth it. Take sturdy walking shoes, and you mind get a little mud on them.
