Our Story
Mountain Home Productions (MHP) traces its origins back to the pandemic, where the collaborative efforts of Stephen Raaflaub, Jeff Parry, and Kelly Carlson emerged to sustain Mountain Home Yoga amid the challenging times. Both Kelly and Stephen, being yoga teachers, joined forces with Jeff, who sought a space to continue his practice. Together, they innovatively introduced a streaming version of Mountain Home Yoga (MHY), allowing the company to thrive without in-person sessions.

Each BVG exhibit incorporated Mountain Home Yoga, enriching the experience with a specially crafted yoga class that focused attention on the art using yoga postures. This unique blend of yoga and art became a resounding success, particularly when practiced in front of Van Gogh's immersive experience, creating a BEYOND mind-blowing and truly exceptional experience in this innovative format.

The Columbia Valley is a magical place filled with a diverse range of offerings, from outdoor adventure to a vibrant sense of community.

As Jeff spent more time in the Valley, he began to realize the vast untapped commercial potential of the music and entertainment industry.
