THE RUBY RANCH
About The Ruby Ranch
The Ruby Ranch is a working farm and horse boarding facility. It is a place to connect, grow and cultivate community, food, plants and a sense of peace and empowerment. We envision bringing music, art, good food, education and so much more to this land that has held so many in the past and will continue to do so, nourishingly, into the future. Stay tuned as we continue to develop our vision and community. We offer classes, workshops and a small event space and plan to add summer camps in 2024.
