Dry Creek Range was founded on the tenet that healing arises through tending—to the land, to the animals, and to the unseen depths of the psyche. Patients engage in the rituals of ranch life—feeding pigs, brushing horses, herding sheep, gathering eggs, working with cattle, and cultivating soil. 
​
This Project honors the ancient and ongoing labor of American Ranching culture—a tradition of dominion and of relationship. To work the land with reverence is to engage in a form of wisdom. In the words of my ancestor, Gifford Pinchot:

“The vast possibilities of our future will become realities only if we make ourselves responsible for that future.”
— Gifford Pinchot

As a fifth-generation farmer, I carry forward a legacy born of the weather-worn wisdom and ensouled farming discipline of my ancestors. Thank you to my parents, Woody and Lisette for raising me on a farm and teaching me homesteading, creative expression, & academic rigor, discipline, etc., & nurturing my brothers and me from a young age to pursue our dreams.
