Humans can be a beneficial part of the ecosystem.

We connect people to place and planet through nourishment, tending, shelter, art, and community — working toward a future where humans life enhances the planet.

Food and shelter — the basic acts of living — are today responsible for over 50% of global greenhouse gas emissions; built today through extractive systems. Imagine a world where the way we eat, build, and live actively regenerates the planet. Where food comes from a thriving local ecosystem, and where architecture restores the land. Red Dot Ranch is a living prototype for the regenerative future—a place where food, shelter, and water systems are designed in harmony with nature and where thought leaders, designers, and system-builders come together to reimagine what’s possible.

Regenerative means not just "sustainable" (maintaining the status quo) — but actually healing, restoring, and improving the natural systems we rely on. It’s giving back more to the soil, water, air, plants, animal and human communities than we take. It’s actively making things better.
