About us
Serious stuff: we want to have a big, healing footprint on the Earth. We do this by building a food forest that mimics natural ecosystems, paying attention to soil life and wildlife, and sequestering carbon. We also want to harvest lots of yummy food - nuts, fruits, mushrooms, eggs, herbs, corn, beans ...! We read, talk, listen, teach, and experiment and write about it for others. Intriguingly, we find that farming makes us better people. Learn more by hopping over to the "About" pages.

Our new straw bale studio book is out!This book describes how we built a beautiful, functional straw bale studio with a timber frame. It is a how-to book explaining our processes, our mistakes, and our eventual success. We hope that this book will empower others - even those with no building experience - to build their own straw bale structure! Email [email protected] if you would like to buy one.

Big Foot Letters
Our blog posts started out as letters to friends and family to tell them about what we were doing, dreaming, thinking about as the Big Foot Food Forest came alive and grew. In these posts we write about our trees, berries, chickens, sheep, building projects and our general ruminations on farming in today's world. We hope that by sharing our stories, others can learn from what we did and are doing - including our many mistakes! Read some of our posts in the "Letters" pages!
