ABOUT US

First Rain Land Stewardship Services works with the natural processes of fire, water, and targeted grazing to heal and re-balance the land. For thousands of years, humans played an essential role in shaping these landscapes, but in recent times we have come to view ourselves as separate from nature. Our mission is to rekindle that connection to the land through intentional stewardship and reciprocal relationships through time and space.
