LETTER FROM THE PUBLISHERS

As the summer season kicks off, we can’t help but feel the excitement for all the outdoor adventures that await us. In this June/July issue of River + Ranch Magazine, we’re celebrating the beauty and serenity of outdoor living and landscape.

From inspiring stories of individuals who have transformed their backyards into stunning outdoor living spaces to tips and tricks for creating a functional and inviting outdoor paradise, this issue is sure to provide you with all the inspiration you need to create your own outdoor oasis.

We explore the importance of landscape design with insights from experts in the field, from Mitch with Next 2 Nature, Jason from Backyard Escapes, Heidi with Myhre Concrete, and Mike with Keller Hearth ‘n Home. We dive into the ways in which outdoor spaces can help make the most of our short summers and take full advantage of the outdoors. These experts are so creative, taking time to draw and design your dream space. Before they even start the project, the amount of work and innovation that goes into these outdoor oases is truly impressive.

As always, we are grateful for your continued support and readership. We hope that this issue inspires you to make the most of the beautiful outdoor spaces that surround us and encourages you to seek out new adventures in nature.
