The Project + Vision
Rosewater Ranch is a 130 acre rural property just 30 minutes North of Reno, Nevada sharing a border with the Humboldt Taiyobe National Forest. It is home to Prema Farms and Mountain Mushrooms - two certified organic farms providing fresh produce to the local and regional communities. Additional subsistence gardens growing produce, staples, medicine and dye plants are sprinkled throughout the property. The total developed space including a large ranch house, barn, earthen art studio, earthen sauna and bathhouse, and farmed land takes up roughly only 4 acres. The remaining acreage is wilderness reserved for wildlife, land stewardship initiatives and environmentally functional art. Currently there are about 8 people living on-site in addition to a herd of goats, a flock of chickens, a small pack of friendly livestock guardian dogs and two barn cats.
​
Our vision is to continue supporting and building our local and extended communities through education, events and artist residency programs.
