Work shelter made from debris
A robust Grandmother cedar tree near the chimney offered the name, Cedar Hill, for our Ozark homestead over twenty-five years ago. The site had been settled in the 1890s by the Mahaffey family who moved from Kentucky to farm 160 acres. The farm was lost to back taxes in the 1930s. We were the first to build a home here since then.
We includes Jeanne Neath, Paula Mariedaughter and a cast of felines and canines. This picture was taken by Martha Payne several years ago in front of a debris shelter we constructed as part of our women’s wilderness awareness school. Pictured from left to right are Annie, the rescued red heeler, Paula and Jeanne.
I would like to include your website as a link on my site, whenever I get one! I basically live the same lifestyle that you live, with a bunch of animals on a farm, and gardening and taking care of the earth. My goal is to have a sustainable permaculture on my farm, and the work I do towards this goal is the most satisfying work I have ver done. I will be reading your archives to get ideas.Greta
