Meet the Orrantias
“Dusty, inspired by his time teaching at Sand n Straw Community Farm in Vista, California, wanted to create a space where kids could feel safe, have fun and discover the magic of learning outdoors. That dream blossomed here at Tierra Ohana, where we blend hands-on farm experiences with curiosity driven exploration. Come see what makes our program so special! ”
—Dusty & Riley Orrantia
The Vision
Tierra Ohana Farm aims to model regenerative, community-centered agriculture.
We strive to create a space where people can reconnect with the land, with each other, and with the food we grow, prepare, and eat. With the support and engagement of our community, we envision the farm growing into a sanctuary of abundance, offering food security, healing, and nourishment for all. We are proud to be part of the local food revolution, a movement with global momentum, and we hope to serve as both an inspiration and a practical model for others working to revive and strengthen small-scale farming.
About the farm
Tierra Ohana Farm is tucked into the Southwest foothills between Ashland and Medford, Oregon, where rich soil and changing seasons offer endless opportunities to learn and grow. As a working farm and education center, we grow food, tend animals, and invite children to connect with the land through hands-on experiences.
About our Practices
We practice regenerative organic methods that honor the land and support long-term ecological health. From composting and cover cropping to rotational grazing and water stewardship, every decision we make is rooted in reciprocity. We care for our soil, our animals, and our community with the belief that healthy systems create thriving people. By working in harmony with nature, we are not just growing food, we are growing a resilient community.
