About Rancho Almasomos
Alma meaning “souls” & Somos meaning “we are.”
🌻
Alma meaning “souls” & Somos meaning “we are.” 🌻
Just outside Sedona, Arizona, rests 131-acres of enchanted land serving as a reminder that connections are what give life meaning. Rancho Almasomos is a premiere agritourism destination, curated for families, by families, that will reconnect guests to their food and the earth from which it comes. Visitors everywhere from our very own Verde Valley to all over the world are welcome to experience Rancho Almasomos for themselves and reconnect their souls to the beauty and bounty of the earth. We host guest experiences and community events that inspire deeper connections, instill hope of a healthy future, and illuminate the splendor of the Verde Valley.
What is Biodynamics?
Rancho Almasomos is striving to be Arizona’s first Demeter Certified biodynamic farm. Biodynamics treats the farm as if it's a living organism. Through these holistic regenerative farming practices, we are strengthening soil health, growing nutrient-dense food without the harsh chemical and GMO inputs of commercial farming, and restoring the planet's natural defenses against climate change by sequestering carbon instead of releasing it.
Together We Thrive
Teamwork here is more than collaboration; it's a deep commitment to each other and to the earth. We move with intention, supporting one another with honesty and compassion, always mindful of the greater good. Whether we're planting seeds, nurturing soil, or solving the challenges that arise, we do it together—grounded in trust, fueled by a spirit of resilience, and always with an eye toward transformation. Because when we work as one, we don't just create a thriving farm; we cultivate a community that embodies the harmony of nature itself.
Our Beloved Ranch Companions

Punkin' - The Donkey
DONKEY | 7 YEARS
The unofficial ranch mascot, Punkin, is a spunky and affectionate donkey, who loves attention and often greets our visitors with a bray to say welcome. He was a thank you gift from the ranch crew to the founder, Kat – who has always wanted a donkey.
-

Pie - The Mini-horse
MINIATURE PAINT HORSE | 6 YEARS
Pie may look like a sweet little pony, but there's a lot of character packed into that miniature body. She’s a little fuzzy firecracker. Gifted by a friend of the farm to keep Punkin’ company, she was the second animal to join the ranch family.

Egg Brigade - The Chickens
AMERAUCANA/SPECKLED SUSSEX | 1 Year
This lively bunch of ranch hens are pulling double duty on the Ranch. They act as little excavators and spreaders distributing the nutrients back into the soil, and they lay some extremely tasty eggs, giving nutrients to us as well.

Aggie - The Brown Goat
NUBIAN | 1 YEAR
Aggie is the brown goat who, like her sisters, was born on a local Cornville farm. She is the Curious George of the bunch and a professional escape artist, who is always getting into mischief – like sneaking into Punkin’ and Pies pen to hang out.

Winnie - The Black Goat
NUBIAN | 1 YEAR
The black goat is Winnie. She is the second sister of our Nubian dairy goat triplets and needs to be the center of attention at all times. Queen of the pen, she is the bravest of her sisters – especially if there is food involved.
-

Gertie - The White Goat
NUBIAN | 1 YEAR
Rounding out our Nubian dairy goat triplets is the spotted white goat Gertie. Very shy compared to his sisters – at least until she gets to know you, and then she is all play. Her favorite thing to do is climb the climbing tower.

Patches - The Cow
ANGUS/HOLSTEIN | 8 YEARS
Hailing from northern Arizona, Patches is the hand raised gentle giant of the ranch. She loves to be scratched under her chin and can be found most days chilling out somewhere in the shade with her three goat sisters.

Patches Calf
ANGUS/HOLSTEIN | 1 YEAR
At already a year old, Patches' calf is already almost full grown. She is a wonderful addition to the Rancho Almasomos family as she shares the barn with her new found farm family.

Koko- The Ranch Dog
Chocolate Lab Mix | 4 YEAR
Koko the ranch dog works hard watching over the other animals in case of danger from the ranging coyotes, bobcats and other predators who would love to make one of our chickens or goats their next meal.
