The Rana Creek Ranch has received a five-star rating from visitors. One of the reviewers commented:
"I just think it's great that Rana Creek creates these immense living roofs with California native plants - habitat restoration is happening on buildings! Awesome! Makes me happy for the birds and the bees. Also I worry about stormwater runoff, and vegetation seems to be the easiest answer - let's plant more plants! I heard Paul Kephart, the owner, speak recently and was inspired! if all our buildings were covered in vegetation, the world would be a better place! Thank you, Rana Creek!"
Paul Kephart, owner of the Rana Creek Ranch is a renowned designer, biologist and land-use planning pioneer. He has been trying to induce living architecture and utilization of vegetation in construction projects.
