Stories of Silverado Ranch

By Anthea McLean

"I have always wanted," he said, "to find a wild piece of desert and turn it into an oasis."

Anthea and Roy McLean prospered as working professionals for years-but that life didn't quite feel right. One day, when they were taking care of their animals on their acreage in South Surrey, they realized they wanted to do that more than live their lives in the city. After many hours debating the logistics of purchasing and running a farm, they took the plunge: they were going to create their own Eden.

Stories of Silverado Ranch follows the true stories of the McLeans' setbacks and successes in turning a patch of wilderness into their homestead. From building their own house using materials found on their land to growing their own food, the road to fulfilling their dream was far from easy. They even found their own families crushing their spirits, displeased with the lifestyle they had chosen.

But no matter how daunting the path to their pocket of paradise seemed, they found happiness in surmounting these difficulties, becoming part of a small but loving community. At Silverado Ranch, Anthea McLean shows us that there is no goal too big to accomplish, no obstacle too big to overcome, no matter what phase of life you're in.
