Hidden Cove
Ranch
The ranch where Ray lives in Missouri truly is a sanctuary. It’s a place of comfort and peace that Ray and his family have been managing and stewarding for decades.
They invite people from all over the world to visit the ranch.
Hidden Cove Ranch is a home for learning. It’s a real-life example of how the natural ecological system works, showing the full framework of regenerative farming.
Ray explains, “We tie all those things together. So we put all those things together so that a person that leaves here has a holistic framework on how the natural system works.”
Rather than modern frameworks that ask “how do I control, force or manipulate systems,” Sanctuary Ranch asks, “how can we emulate nature?”
How do we love it? Nurture it? How do we follow the principles and the patterns of nature?
This is the essence of Biomimicry.
This is the better way.
Visiting Hidden Cove Ranch is a powerful spiritual experience.
“All of us were designed to enjoy beauty, to eat food, and to fellowship,” Ray explains. “Here, all these things merge on the ranch so that when people come to my place, they have a fellowship of love for each other, for the food, for the creation.
​
It's a sanctuary of love. hope of regenerating souls and hearts and minds. Visitors leave with the courage to go back and continue their work.
​
In that sense, our Ranch is like a community. It’s like a church. There’s a reason why God has a church. It's a community – to recharge each other, to encourage, to admonish each other while you’re there.
​
This ranches about sharing, giving, reflecting God's glory, building community for the neighbor, or for anybody that comes to visit.”
