Last Natural Growing California Sage Field

William "Billy" Brady (www.buffalosage.ca), an expert on California Sage and indigenous plants, is pictured during an interview with his foreman during a multimedia documentary video he is producing about white California sage in Southern California, northwestern Baja California, Mexico.

The undisclosed secret giant California White Sage field pictured is one of the last remaining wild natural-growing sage fields in Southern California.

NATURAL CALIFORNIA WHITE SAGE FIELD: Over 500 acres!

Billy Brady estimated when he was born in the 1940s, this sage field encompassed about 15-square miles of natural pristine sage fields as pictured with this extreme indigenous plant activity carpeting the area.

When this huge natural-growing sage field was photographed above in 2006 -- Billy estimated to be over 500 acres remaining -- it is full of this extreme indigenous California plant activity.

Photographer's note:

"This sage field reminded me of when a person witnesses something great that is ending; like seeing the last great tuna school, or last great herd of wild buffalo, and sadly realizing it will not exist in a few years.
