About the host
Hosted by Leslie Wehrman
I ran a private business for over 25 years until one day I woke up, took a giant leap of faith, and decided to start living in truer alignment with my personal gifts and talents in a way that made sense to me. I've been a Plumas County native since 1978 and wanted to begin sharing my knowledge and affinity for the local area with folks interested in connecting with nature in meaningful ways, so I started the Forest & Farm business in 2018 and began weaving together a bed & breakfast type hospitality with a hands-on working farm component - this was the birth of Jamison House.
I was raised in the historic mining town of Johnsville, situated within Plumas Eureka State Park, just a 15-minute drive from Jamison House. As a youngster I routinely skied home from the Johnsville Ski Hill, original seat of the longboards downhill ski tradition, and extensively explored the surrounding mountain ranges of Eureka Peak, Mt. Elwell, and Washington. After attending Chico State University I moved back to the area and purchased the acreage upon which Jamison House now rests. I earned certifications as a California Naturalist in 2016 and an Eco-Sustainable Farming Techniques practitioner in 2020. These two courses helped shape the overall vision of Forest & Farm, and adding Jamison House to the property awhile ago now allows me the privilege of sharing my love of The Lost Sierra with folks from around the world.
I truly enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and warmly invite guests to interact with all there is to see and do on the farm and surrounding natural landscapes. Basking in the glow of High Sierra Solitude has enriched my life in countless ways, so I strive at Forest & Farm to help others find meaningful connections too. I'm happy to give Jamison House guests farm tours, steer visitors to my favorite hiking trails, offer dining recommendations, and basically act as travel guide for anyone interested!

Why they chose this property
I purchased this property (5 acres) in 1993 with the intention of raising my two beautiful daughters in a prime location for them to develop into strong, capable, and kind people - which thankfully is exactly what came to pass. Having been raised myself in Plumas Eureka State Park, I experienced firsthand what it meant to be a Mountain Kid, and the sense of pride that went along with it. Thus, when this land just off County Road A-15 came up for sale, it was a no-brainer. The property is bordered by Plumas National Forest and is across the street from the magical Feather River. My girls and I spent countless hours exploring the wooded areas and swimming holes in the adjacent waterways. The acreage provided plenty of gorgeous space for us to raise chickens, rabbits, goats, sheep, pigs, dogs, cats, and enjoy our three horses "Belle," "Harmony," and "Fidel." Though my daughters are now grown, I continue to be so very grateful for the land upon which I live.
There are currently two homes, a barn with outbuildings, and one studio on this lovely property. Since the space is now also part of my business, I spend large amounts of time with beautification projects that Jamison House guests are sure to enjoy. Whether visitors want to interact with farm animals, wander in the gardens, or simply enjoy some peace and quiet...it can all be found at the enchanting Jamison House.

What makes this property unique
As mentioned, this property is dear to my heart for a myriad of reasons. However, it's uniqueness is obvious once you are on-property. Unlike other vacation rentals, it is not in a subdivision, homeowners association, situated on a golf course, or in a noisy downtown. Rather, this farmstead home retreat rests on 5 acres of privately owned rural land outside city limits. Jamison House is quiet, beautifully landscaped, pet friendly, and borders Plumas National Forest lands. Forest and farm merge together within the property boundaries - there are greenhouses, multiple garden spaces, farm animals, and a Farm Stand - all surrounded by pines, junipers, and fir trees. Wildflowers abound, wildlife thrives, ephemeral streams flow, and peace and quiet reign. Guests are encouraged to collect their own chicken eggs and help themselves to harvest what's ripe from the greenhouse. Luxury accommodations are standard at Jamison House, where spa-like amenities round out the ultimate sanctuary-like experience,
"Jamison House is unique unto itself - there is nothing like it in the surrounding area."
