I'm Mark Gross, founder of School of Ranch. After a life in cities and the burbs, I found myself living on a ranch in Central Oregon. First thing I did...bought a chainsaw and went to YouTube to learn how to use it. Mistake! Chainsaw + Video = Major Potential of Missing limb!
I ran an ad on Craigslist, "Idiot Needs Help with Chainsaw." Kaleb Watson showed up at my door, and despite having zero in common, we bonded over the experience. I said, hey, let's start School of Ranch! We can hire people like you to teach people like me. And better, we can help everyone discover common ground. After all, we're not going to fight while working together to learn to use a chainsaw.
While our product is education, our purpose is community. We help people discover common ground regardless of politics, age, background or beliefes.
Today, School of Ranch serves thousands of people each year in Central Oregon with its workshops and programs like School of Ranch Extend. We are a volunteer-led nonprofit. There is no paid staff. We do pay our high school interns, who run all our marketing. Thanks for all your support.
