See what this unique community offers in terms of off-grid living options and food production including the founders own amazing greenhouse. See how this homestead focuses on the nitrogen-cycle to be as self-sufficient as possible! Riverbed Ranch founder, Philip Gleason, will be giving a tour of his 2-acre slice of paradise! And we can drive around the community and see other options for construction of homes, barns, and greenhouses. Guided tour starts at about 11am. Bring a water bottle & sack lunch (and snacks, if you're bringing children). Drinking water, restroom and limited cell service (VOIP) available. Plan for 2 hours each way if coming from Utah County*. Unless you have all-terrain or off-road tires, we'd recommend you only drive 30 or 35mph on the gravel roads. Probably be wise to make sure your spare tire is good, and you have a jack and lug wrench (and I'd pick up a $9 tire repair kit) -- just in case! IMPORTANT: RSVP by purchasing your ticket ahead of time And PLEASE text Jesse If you live in Lehi or further North, you may be tempted to take the "Northern route" through Eagle Mountain or Dugway. The road out that way is very rocky in parts. It may actually be faster/better for you to go through Eureka or Nephi.

Keep going. You'll cross a cattle guard, vear left, and go up a long rise. Near the top of the rise is a road to your left. Take that. Cross another cattle guard and turn left at the next road. Philip's homestead is all the way to the end of that road. If coming via Southern Utah County: use this link as seen in this picture If you follow Google Maps, it will have you turn North off Weiss sooner and shave off 5 or `10 minutes, but the road is rougher, so you may want to keep going and let Google direct you to the next turn at the River Bottom Rd street sign (if it hasn't been stolen). Seriously, watch out for sheep, cattle, and antelope.
