Connecting people to land and nature so each can heal the other

Welcome to our family farm in the Laguna de Santa Rosa region, of the Russian River appellation in Sonoma County, California, where water meets sky. We offer farm experiences and inspirational forays that promote healthy living and our farmstand with own homemade wool goods, herbal delights, teas, wine, preserves, spices, and our carefully selected organic home goods that embody our farm to health passion and philosophy.

We are home to SkyHorse Equine Guided Education and Coaching programs, founded by Ariana Strozzi Mazzucchi in 1989. Ariana and her unique SkyHorse EGE™ brand has trained some of the best professionals offering healing programs for humans and horses worldwide. We are honored that Ariana still offers specialized equine guided programs at our ranch.

Our medicinal herb gardens—where we grow herbs for teas, tinctures, salves and oils— and ever expanding berry and fruit orchards add more healing energy to our palette of ‘keep calm and carry on’. Our ranch is organically tended. Wildlife and native plants are respected members of our family, just like our other animal companions.
