forest farm / the good life center印象

The good life center is the former home of Helen and Scott Nearing. It is impossible to describe the life an philosophies of the Nearings in this review. Look them up on Wikipedia. Suffice it to say that they advocated non violence and a sustainable lifestyle long before most people had heard of those ideas. They greatly inspired the back to the land movements of the 70's which still continue to this day.The center is beautiful and they offer workshops throughout the summer on farming and building techniques for the serious homesteader or even just the backyard gardener.It is definitely off the beaten trail but that makes finder feel that much more special. www.goodlife.org

Now I can mark off visiting the Good Life Center from my "Bucket List"Yea! Scott Nearing was a good friend of my grandmothers for decades and upon her death I became the recipient of letters she kept that he wrote her.. beginning in 1923 when he was an educator up until the early 1960's.I Feel so refreshed to know that with conviction, good health and motivation we can be productive and strong long into our "Golden Years"...Beautiful corner of the world.Although there is no fee for visiting, donations are excepted and needed.
