Rhea Withrow
Meet the Heart Behind the Burros
What began as a daydream quickly became a delightful reality. Rhea—a landscape contractor, devoted mama, and steward of a 380-acre working ranch on the wild, rugged south coast of Big Sur—has always had a passion for sustainable living, animal husbandry, and the quiet magic of homesteading.
In 2023, feeling the pull for a fresh chapter, she envisioned a business that combined her lifelong love of animals (especially her deep-rooted “horse girl” spirit) with her desire to bring more joy into the world. The idea of a beer burro business took root—and, as if by magic, four miniature donkeys arrived on her homestead just when she needed them most.
Now, this family-run venture brings a little whimsy, a lot of heart, and plenty of unforgettable moments to events throughout the region.
