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.
This is the Year of the Horse! A time of freedom, courage, and forward movement. A time when it really matters what you do and dont do. Leadership is about relationship-how are you relating to yourself, others and what is happening in the world. It is a pivotal year! It’s time to get off the fence and recalibrate who you are and what you care about. The old style of leadership is out, help lead the way for a new paradigm of relational leadership!
Leadership & Horses™ has been going strong for over 35 years and stands the test of time. This class changes lives and creates pathways to turn dreams into reality.
If you are ready to move forward—whether that be finding a new sense of well being in chaos or taking a stand for something that really matters to you—Ariana and the horses are here for you to open, explore, be authentic, find your courage and set yourself free. 2026 is a special time, don’t let it dither away.
Class goes from 10 am to 5 pm each day.
Gluten free, organic lunch is included.
Limited lodging is available upon request, plus many other local options here in the Russian River Appellation
