Culinary Arts

Feathered Pipe has been a leader and promoter of healthy, vegetarian, and organic cuisine since its inception. We strive to continue and expand that tradition through preparing delicious food that is healthy and vegetarian-based (with limited meat and fish), using wholesome ingredients while also paying attention to where the food is sourced and its global impact.

Beyond our food focus at the Ranch, we are expanding and educating our audience through our website to spotlight food, how to prepare it, creative ways to use different ingredients and share insights on the impact of food on individual health as well as how food choices impact the environment.

If you enjoy preparing fresh foods, cooking/baking, and food service related work, our kitchen is a great place to work.

Ranch Caretaking

Feathered Pipe Ranch - work montanaAs anyone knows who has spent time out in nature or on a farm or ranch, maintaining a sense of order and cleanliness can be a real challenge. Nature has a way of always finding a way in and filling any niche left unoccupied, including our little chipmunk friends who scramble in any door left open.

At the Feathered Pipe Ranch, we strive to reach a healthy balance where the wonder and beauty of nature are honored while we live and tread lightly amidst it. We take care to not use poisons or overly aggressive means in our management and maintenance of the Ranch grounds. The love and reverence we have for our natural surroundings is extended to how we care for and tend our facilities as well.

Ranch care taking positions are a perfect opportunity for those who love to organize, clean, fix, and imagine and create improvements. Jobs include housekeeping and maintenance.
