a place to be

We are a car-free retired couple living in a small 950 sq ft mountain cabin on less than 1/4 acre at 6,750 ft elevation. The native plant habitat we established on the property now exceeds 100 species and we grow organic vegetables on a small portion of the yard. In our continuing efforts toward simple, sustainable and rewarding lives we bid our last car "Good Riddance" in January of 1997. Earth Home Garden represents what we love in life; our bountiful planet EARTH and all her natural diversity; our cozy little cabin HOME and the family it has sheltered for 29 years; and the GARDEN around us which nurtures so many native creatures and helps feed us as well.

Oh, I can hardly wait til my customized box of earth-home-garden eggs arrives in the mail-box! ;-). Lovely.
Best love to everyone in your house.
Best wishes to you and your family, Jim!

We always enjoy the Solstice - complete with bonfire and roasted oysters.

We're having a hot sunny Christmas here in New Zealand, so I'm not thinking about winter too much....except a cool day now and again would be nice!
So I'll wish you both a Happy Christmas and pray that your 2006 will be filled with blessings, peacefulness and good health.
Love
