My daughter and I just had the best 4 days ever! Feeding goats, alpacas…making a beautiful mosaic tile; cheeses, and ice cream! Quiet, private and a great getaway vacation !Dawn is so wonderful making sure your stay is perfect, and it was! Hot tub, scenery, serenity was wonderful! And not expensive! It was so great not to hassle airport/ flights; nice drive from Los Angeles

Best place in the world. A place where LOVE abides, where LOVE is the law and the doctrine. I only visited a few times but I loved my time there. I miss these people and this place so much it makes my heart break. Shouldn't have left, shouldn't have broken my promise... Again.. now I am married and obligated to a different life. No more broken promises. I pray some day that God will lead myself and my new family HOME. Thanks for all the love you showed to such a wretched soul. Avrech Daveed will never forget you!

Produce well cared for, don't know animal welfare state here. It's a cult with a growing global enterprise. Current economical project for them is to buy an American yerba mate farm that produces half of the yerba mate production in America.

I lived on this ranch recently in an observant manner. I freely went to their meetings twice a day just to observe and hear what they had to say. After hearing enough of the meetings, I tried to stop going due to scriptural contraindications that they disagreed with me on. When they observed I wasn't in a meeting 1 night, I was forced to go to their meetings while I lived with them; everybody there regardless of belief is required to go to their meetings as long as they're living with them. I asked for studies from the scriptures regarding certain beliefs they have but I was told it was irrelevant and I have to forget everything I learned and believed and accept their doctrine and beliefs since they firmly believe that they have the way of salvation.

Blind obedience to all members is required; I got in trouble for not wanting to talk to a member who, in 1 instance, tried multiple times to force me into conversation with her physically. Stereotypical brainwashing of a recruit was done right before my eyes in a meeting (love-bombing, showering praise for the recruit in front of everyone, recruit taking in everything the community says and does, including being given a name by the community when a recruit becomes a member and blind acceptance of that name). From observation, mentally handicapped people may possibly be fooled into their community.

After these experiences, I left. When they learned I was leaving, they saw me as a lost soul and they tried giving me their literature as I parted ways with them, which I refused.

If you want to have business with them, that's up to you. This isn't a response of hate to these people but only to share my personal experience of living with them. They claim to live by faith but their faith in provision is founded on what they can make in their enterprise, not in the mercy of God. Such faith isn't true reliance on God.

Made a delivery a few weeks ago and tried their green drink with lemonade. ? That drink alone made that horrible drive out there much more worth it! I enjoyed it so much I forget to ask where I can buy some at. I desperately need to buy some.

Very kind people. Interesting experience. But felt very welcome. They treated my kids like family and taught them how to dance. Fun evening
