I started my own camp (Hawk Circle) in 1989 and I live in Cherry Valley with my family and our small community year round. I am particularly inspired by our ancestral heritage, by people who lived for twenty thousand years in a sustainable, balanced way, close to the land and as a community, and to learn from their example. |
