Hospitality - Global Market is expected to hit $5.9 Trillion by 2022. Travelers in Utah spent $10.06 Billion in 2019. Utah is a great tourist destination and our programs and services are at the pinnacle of the health and wellness industries. We think that we check all of the boxes for value, variety of activities, and our focus on a regenerative future. We don't know of another place that brings together all of these desirable qualities better than we do.
The property spans about 4.5 miles East to West and the elevation goes from 5,700 feet to 9,000 feet. The terrain offers spectacular mountain and valley views and a multitude of activities for 4 season enjoyment. Because of our ecological emphasis, we will not over build or misuse the land, so it will continue to offer the very best of experience for our guests who want solitude, personalized service, and a one of a kind experience. The location is remote but convenient. It is only a little over an hour from the Salt Lake International Airport. The opulent mansion house and grounds offer uncommon luxury and comfort. Guests will feel like royalty.

Health and Wellness - Global market was $4.2 Trillion in 2017 with $52.5 Billion being spent within the United States. 79% of employers are now offering wellness programs for their employees. Workplace disease management programs are losing popularity to wellness programs. Health and wellness industry spending growth makes it a direct competitor to healthcare spending. Who wouldn't rather stay well than become ill? Since many of the most lethal diseases are lifestyle and nutrition related, it makes sense to place focus on health.

Ecological System Services - Definitely a growing sector of our economy and perhaps the most important, but the first two will carry us to profitability. By investing in us, you are also supporting our ecological mission to bring forth education and research in the areas of Agroforestry, Holistic Land Management, Agroecology and Permaculture. You are supporting regenerative villages of the future.
-
Products and Retail - Definitely the icing on the cake. A demonstration site for regenerative commerce and economics.
Our Team
We have assembled some of the best and brightest minds to bring to reality a vision of whole-systems planned, regenerative communities of the future. It is also very important to us to bring the right people together who have the experience, the persistence, the people-skills and the heart and might to make it happen.
Our Agroecology teams (United Designers and others) have completed large-scale ecosystem restoration projects around the world, with requisite understanding of dry climate needs. Curtis Wolthuis and associates have completed full cycle projects in Master Planned Communities, Residential Housing Construction, building up to 300+ units per year, and commercial industrial business parks, right here in Utah County. Our Architects and Support team members are time tested, ecologically savvy people who are passionate about what they do.
Experienced and successful, Integrative Medical Associates, and other highly regarded wellness professionals are ready to serve our clients as we continue to establish our own elite team as traffic requires.
We are considering qualified individuals as hospitality management specialists. All aimed at providing the highest level of service to our clientele and very competent transparency to our community members and investors.
We are unable to disclose, at this time, some of the potential executives. For more information about our collaborators and team members, please see: OUR PEOPLE.

New Construction & Purchases
Guest Facilities Expansion: 10 tri-plex units built over 2 years. (5 per year) A tri-plex unit consists of a 1 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath apartment in the center with a studio apartment on either side. They can be combined for a very large 3 bed, 3 1/2 bath apartment or used individually. If each room/apartment were to have a week long guest, the following chart shows our Guest Lodging Capacity. Please keep in mind the first year we have only the mansion rooms available. A few of the rooms will have convertible sofa beds for extra capacity.
Examples of possible future guest lodging... The right look and feel.

Gathering Spaces and Facilities: Pavilion and Conservatory (examples)
Shopping Complex: General Store, Farmers' Market, Apothecary, Bakery, Ice Cream, Salon, 3 levels of Restaurants. (Concepts only)
Eden Project in Cornwall, England.
Ecological System Services: Currently there are 7 ponds, about 100 head of cattle and about 200 acres under pivot irrigation. As we transition to Regenerative Systems, in addition to the EPL and Greenhouses, mentioned above, we will need the following construction: Agroecology/Agroforestry Building - including Dairy Facility, Sheering shed, Labs, Classrooms, and Student housing. Regencubator: maker spaces, mentoring. (Examples)
