About Torino Ranch

Torino Ranch – home of the Brett Torino Foundation – is a sprawling sanctuary of nature that rests inside the pristine and untouched land of Lovell Canyon. Designed by Brett Torino himself as a tribute to his love of the natural world, Torino Ranch features two lakes, hundreds of trees, a garden greenhouse, an outdoor amphitheater, an outdoor pool, dozens of cabins, and an ornately designed lodge with a commercial kitchen. It is the result of decades of planning, construction and community partnership.

History of Torino Ranch

Torino Ranch sits on land that has a diverse and fascinating history dating back to the original inhabitants, who were Paiute Indians.

The vision of the Brett Torino Foundation, in addition to sharing the magic of nature, is first and foremost to preserve it.

Summer Camp Programs

Every summer since 1994, Torino Ranch has opened its door to a multitude of children and adults in need. The laughter of children who are critically ill and physically or developmentally challenged fills the Ranch with immeasurable joy.

Buddhist Monks

Buddhist Monks

Every summer Torino Ranch hosts approximately a dozen Buddhist monks for a period of two to three weeks during a portion of the summer program. Their visit is a part of a cross-country trek by the monks to spread joy and zen to the staff, children, counselors and volunteers who tirelessly facilitate the camp experience.

In celebration of Earth Day 🌎, which we honor every day of the year through our conservation efforts 🌿, the Brett Torino Foundation joined forces with 75-100 dedicated volunteers for the Lovell Canyon Clean-Up last Saturday. 

Together, we filled an entire extra-large dumpster with discarded furniture, mattresses, a water heater, and an abundance of glass, cans, bottles, and other waste. 

It's truly humbling to have so much help from the community to continue the work we began in 2017, enhancing the beauty of Lovell Canyon. Together, we've turned it from a neglected, crime-ridden, toxic site into a thriving, verdant oasis, cherished by hikers, bikers, and families seeking solace in its majestic, cooler high elevations. 

A heartfelt πŸ’š thank you to @saveredrock, our community allies and volunteers whose dedication made this event a resounding success.
