The site for the fiber building is changing almost every day......
On Monday they dug a hole for the Sugar house slab, filled it with gravel, and graded it to the right height. There will need to be a rock retaining wall on one side. I hope it can look like the one by the house in Danville where I grew up (only it will be much smaller). There is a stack of wood waiting to be split...poplar and ash. The poplar will be sap wood for the new sugar house for next year's maple syrup production. The ask will be fire wood for the fiber building. We have been shopping for a used Jotul wood stove in Uncle Henry's on line.
On Tuesday it rained. On Wednesday and Thursday they dug trenches for the frost walls and the concrete person came and dropped of boards for the footings. The water supply that fed the old sugar house is capped off. And last evening we spiritually prepared the space for the good things to come, thanking everyone who has taken part in the planning, dreaming and visioning this new place for family and community to make beautiful fiber creations~gathering, as the pieces of a puzzle all falling into place, reaching out to those who share our dream, and receiving the wisdom, inspiration, rosources and joy.
