New Land, Old Land

I recently closed on a two-acre parcel of land in Delaware County, NY. It's located in the NYC Watershed, and there is a moratorium on industrial development so that the waters are kept free of hazardous materials. Basically it's like acquiring land in the middle of a national park. This is the land where I grew up. (The grey building in the photo is the house I grew up in.) For now my little parcel of land is mostly milkweeds so I like to think of it as a butterfly sanctuary. I have dreams of one day establishing an artist retreat, or a land art garden, or a sustainable berry farm. I will continue to post updates as things develop.
