“Feathered Pipe continues to do good in the world, for the world, even when it is difficult to forge ahead, especially when times are difficult —. The world comes together at Feathered Pipe!”
~ Poonam Jain
Dear Friends,
“The world comes together at Feathered Pipe,” our friend Poonam so aptly puts it. And even as we are spread across the globe, we are united through our love, community, and our appreciation of Feathered Pipe Ranch. THANK YOU for being a part of it.
Feathered Pipe 2023 Feature Video – Jonathan Lee of Subtle Dream created a new and stunning compilation video of Feathered Pipe Ranch this year. You can virtually experience class on the nature deck, hiking and taking in the amazing views, walking through the tall grasses and canoeing on the lake. Scored with “Skye Farm”—Jacob David Bradley’s original instrumental named for the location just above the Ranch. Two and half minutes well spent, but beware you may want to watch it again. Big gratitude to Jonathan and Jacob.
Looking forward to 2024

Feathered Pipe Scholarship Program is truly life-changing, take it from a few of the 2023 scholarship recipients…
“This has been a life changer. My health, spiritual wellbeing and outlook on life have all improved. As a 2 year cancer survivor this is just vital. I am incredibly blessed and totally grateful to have been able to attend the Mindful Unplug retreat at the Ranch.” ~Colette
“ I am grateful to be a recipient of this scholarship opportunity to remind myself that I am worthy of receiving this gift of healing in the beauty and simplicity of nature. … I cannot think of a more valuable way to invest one’s money in raising the consciousness of humans and the planet than through the work and seva of Feathered Pipe Ranch.” ~Brenda
“Western medicine saved my life, but my yoga practice and spending time outdoors have sustained me. Though I still have many brain challenges, it is clear that my brain is healing itself. Feathered Pipe made such a difference for me in this lifelong path, as it first showed me the way.” ~Deborah
