One land.
Bryant & Co. Foundation is the nonprofit educational arm of The Living Ground ecosystem. To carry out our programming legally and sustainably, the foundation leases a dedicated portion of The Living Ground property directly from The Living Ground LLC.
This structure allows us to raise nonprofit funds specifically for educational programming, community workshops, animal care, and land stewardship initiatives while keeping the for-profit and nonprofit operations clearly separated and fully compliant.
When you donate to Bryant & Co. Foundation, your dollars fund the nonprofit's lease of that land and everything that happens on it: the classes, the animals, the workshops, the Cool Bus block parties, and the next generation of people learning how to grow food and steward land.

Every dollar goes somewhere specific. Choose the program that speaks to you and watch your contribution move the needle in real time. All progress is live and updated as donations come in.
Everything starts here. Bryant & Co. Foundation needs to secure its lease of the anchor property in Paso Robles, California from The Living Ground LLC before any programming can begin at scale. This is the land where every workshop, every animal, every educational experience will live. Without the property, nothing else moves. This is the most urgent need and the first place your dollar should go.
Fund the Foundation →Funds raised here go directly toward lease payments and property development costs that allow Bryant & Co. Foundation to operate its 20% educational programming allocation on The Living Ground acreage.
Every great organization starts with seed money. These early dollars fund the foundational costs of getting Bryant & Co. Foundation operational: filings, registration, initial administrative needs, and the first steps toward building something lasting.
Funding the administrative home base. Office space, furniture, equipment, and the operational infrastructure that keeps the foundation running between now and when we are fully on the land.
Fund the horse stalls, fencing, feed, and care for our equine program. These animals are teachers. Every dollar brings them home.
Our chickens are educators too. Fund the coop, fencing, feed, and care for the flock. Students learn egg collection, animal care, and the basics of poultry farming right here.
Two cows. A whole curriculum. Fund the care, feeding, and housing of our cattle and help students learn the full scope of livestock management and sustainable ranching.
Two to four sheep joining the family. Fund their shelter, feed, and care while students learn wool production, grazing management, and small-scale livestock stewardship.
Our goats do double duty: natural land clearing and live education. Sponsor the herd and watch them work their way down the line while students learn regenerative land management.
Every farm needs its guardians. Help fund the care, food, and veterinary needs of our barn cats and farm dogs. They keep the property safe, the pests in check, and the kids smiling.
We are partnering with professional beekeepers to bring hives to The Living Ground. Fund the hives, protective gear, and education partnership so students learn pollination, honey production, and the critical role bees play in every food system.
Clean water is the foundation of everything we grow. Fund the pond infrastructure and watch the frogs leap toward a fully functioning water ecosystem that feeds the entire farm.
Focus, discipline, and precision. Our archery station brings a unique physical education experience to the farm. Fund the range, equipment, and safety infrastructure so every student can learn to aim with intention.
Understanding what food does to your body is as important as growing it. Fund our nutritional education programming where students, families, and community members learn the science behind what they eat and how to make it work for them.
From the soil to the stove. Our chef-led cooking workshops teach participants how to prepare real meals from what the farm grows. Choose your cuisine, pick your produce, learn to cook it. Every workshop is a full farm-to-table experience.
We take the farm to the people. Live animals, cooking demos, nutritional workshops, and live music come straight to the block. Every family at the event plants one grow bag with one specific crop for that season and takes it home. That bag is the beginning of something much bigger. Funded separately below.
Every family at a block party goes home with one grow bag planted with one specific crop for that season. One family grows tomatoes. Another grows peppers. Another grows herbs. Once a month neighbors put their bags out front for a harvest swap, trading what they grew and sharing recipes. Apartment dwellers pool their bags in courtyards. The block becomes a distributed farm. This campaign funds the bags, soil, seeds, crop care guides, and harvest swap kits that make it happen every quarter.
Watch the bricks stack up in real time. Your donation goes directly toward fencing, structures, facilities, and the physical foundation of The Living Ground educational spaces.
Help land the vision. Fund the agritourism programming, global farm extensions, and the infrastructure that lets this model travel anywhere in the world it is needed.
