"The importance of the @HDAHOME1, and other local housing organizations like them, cannot be overstated, and they cannot be over-appreciated. They are a source of hope and safety for countless families across the country." Can't say it better than @ShawnP! loom.ly/mR_k3eE

A couple of weeks ago, one of our good friends, a fellow seed saver from just over the mountain, passed away. He would have loved seeing the Bloody Butcher corn he gave us show up in this story from @AJNierenberg, with pics from @maddiemcgarvey. nytimes.com/2019/12/03/dinin…

Almost there! Construction is nearing completion on our #artistcentered studios. These giant windows look out on the wooded, sloping hill. The studios were designed to feel like you're floating above the trees. #loghaven #loghavenartistresidency #construction #buildingsomething
