Join with us in celebrating the beautiful life of Ed Utterback

In 2014, we went to Ed and Mary with a big ask - would they open their farm to strangers in need and help develop a farm-based addiction rehabilitation facility. With their blessing, Jacob’s Ladder at Brookside Farm came into being. Ed dearly loved getting to know the hundreds of Ladder Boys who have taken the steps to better their lives. And those men, loved Ed. They sought out his spiritual peace, his unconditional love, his wise words of wisdom, and his joy for life. In December of 2024, Ed passed after a battle with cancer surrounded by his family and loved ones.

In honor of Ed and in his spirit of community service and giving, we present The Ed Utterback Gratitude Fund.

Jacob’s Ladder's graduates have completed a monumental step forward in their recovery journey. But for many, the next phase after treatment begins with an urgent need: a warm meal, new glasses, clean work clothes, transportation to a new job, help with a security deposit. That’s where The Gratitude Fund comes in!

This fund was created with one simple but powerful belief that Ed taught us - that gratitude grows when it’s shared. Your support helps individuals in early recovery meet critical, short-term needs that make long-term healing possible. We’ve seen what happens when people feel safe, supported, and connected. Lives stabilize. Hope returns. Families are restored. Gratitude blossoms.

Will you give today to help someone in recovery take their next brave step and donate today?
