Ironwood Farm Project
We call it a project because there are lots of things going on here. We are a family of four living semi-rurally in our owner-built off-grid straw bale home, attachment parenting, unschooling, farming and homesteading with two other family members on 10 acres. Our goals are self-sufficiency and sustainability as we prepare for the future while living joyfully in the present.

We are a family of five: myself, my husband and our three children, ages 9, 8 and 6, living in the Northwestern Mountain Region of Maryland. Our land is home to many creatures, and our goals are to restore native habitat, to farm sustainably, and to preserve biodiversity by growing heirloom plants and protecting rare/ heritage breeds of livestock and poultry.

Stories and articles from this and the other side of motherhood. This side: childbirth and reacommunity, considecommunity (un)schooling, play and language development, etc. The other side: dreams of homesteading, ecological worries, sustaining and saving the planet
