Sunrise Ranch is a pretty amazing place. It has been an intentional, spiritual community since 1945, leading the way in changing the consciousness of mankind to bring Divine expression in a fuller way on planet Earth. It is a Conference and Retreat Center that provides a context and atmosphere for people like Joan Borysenko, Dr. Pinkola-Estes, Jonathan Goldman, and so many more to offer their gifts to the world. It is a learning center, offering many different forms of classes to enhance people's lives. It is a permaculure school and a summer camp for children. It is a place for healers and healing. It is a unique Culinary Academy where students learn farm-to-table cooking using eggs from Sunrise chickens and produce from the 3.5 acre garden that has never seen pesticides, herbicides, or artificial fertilizers. It is a working ranch, raising grass-fed, grass-finished beef. It provides a 400 seat dome for concerts with incredible acoustics.
Personally, it was my point of spiritual orientation for decades and my home for 3 years, 2010-2013. That's my little bungalow shown at the top of this page. At least it was when I lived there and I so enjoyed my little sanctuary. You may not ever live there, but I highly recommend that you plan a visit some time. Perhaps just take a class. You'll love it!!
