We're building an off-grid farming community where you can work remotely while building out a self-reliance farm. Thirty-five families reside at Riverbed Ranch.

The goal of the town is to help every resident to produce all their own life-sustaining food, water and power! We hope that every household will also have their own home-based business so that Riverbed Ranch will have a wide variety of local goods and services.

The remaining lots at Riverbed Ranch range from 2.0 to 2.4 acres. Each lot comes with 2.5 acre-feet of water shares (that's 800,000 gallons of water a year). Well permit included!

Our off-grid farming town is nestled between the Keg Mountain and Simpson Mountain ranges, and is about a half mile East to West and 3 miles North to South.

About this Project

Riverbed Ranch is a creation of the Utah OSR Land Cooperative, Utah's only non-profit land developer created for the benefit of those who join the co-op. The focus of a co-op is to minimize costs, not to maximize profits like traditional land developers.

This is not a political or religious project, it is an agricultural cooperative organized under Title 3 of the Utah Code by a leading co-op attorney we hired.

Motivation

Our current shareholders value this agricultural cooperative as an ideal opportunity to enjoy:

- Self-Sufficiency - Providing for their family's essential needs without having to rely on markets or the government for food, water, power or sanitation.
- Family - Providing their children a more carefree rural lifestyle, where they can learn to work.
- Safety - A place of safety for their families, from things either now or in the future, and
- Heath - The health benefits of growing your own more-nutritious, non-GMO food untainted by pesticides and herbicides.

Benefits

A share in the Utah OSR Land Cooperative gives you these benefits:

- A cooperative's equivalent of a title to 2 acres at the Riverbed Ranch farm-steading community (it's called a proprietary occupancy agreement and can be bought and sold).
- At least 2.5 acre-feet of water shares, Also a pre-paid well permit.
- Opportunity to use some of the additional 500 acres of farmland for agricultural projects of your choosing.
- A vote in the cooperative to elect board members,
- Group purchases of products and services needed to build your homestead.
- Opportunity to sell your products and services through the co-op,
