We seek to foster a spirit of interdependence and cooperation among our students, regardless of race, age, national origin, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation, while serving as an example of eco-responsibility to the greater community. Leave your tobacco, meat, dairy, and pets behind. Also leave behind your need for artificial cooling and heating, electronic items, and other resource draining habits. Observe living a simple life, and loving it, knowing that all who come here are growing spiritually and together working toward a better, healthier world for all people. Currently husband and wife team Jacquie Omi Zaleski, MS, Don Mackenzie, and 4 others reside at the ranch full time with 3 other residents.
Volunteers visit year round.
The vast variety of people who have assisted in this work reflect the compassion of those from all over this great country who respect the environment, wildlife, and tomorrow's leaders. The WindTree Ranch Spiritual facilitator is Jacquie Omi Zaleski. She has been a student of alternative spirituality since the 1970's in New York. She has written about, spoken for, and fought to the Federal Appeals Court, for religious freedom for all religions with such vigor that she is known world-wide. She has traveled from north of Seattle, to the southern tip of both California and Florida, and to northern Maine and Canada.
