The homestead consists of a ranch house , two bunk houses , and a barn . Some students opt to stay in thier own tents or small trailers. The ranch house is used by instructors for grading and lesson planning, although students are always welcome.
Food is provided by a caterer who has converted a large trailer into a mobile kitchen.
Hot breakfasts and dinners are provided seven days a week, and materials are provided to make lunches to take in the field. In a separate section of the kitchen trailer there are two washing machines and a dryer, as well as four showers.
