Bittersweet Farms

   I recently had the pleasure of meeting some very interesting individuals at Bittersweet Farms, which works with and is home to autistic adults.  Bittersweet Farms has a variety of interests that keep the residents busy, from art work, horticulture, woodworking and general maintenance to tending to animals.

   I followed a group of men for a while whose duties were gathering and cutting the wood that is the sole source of energy used for the wood burning stoves in the hoop houses and the woodworking house.   My images are of some residents that gathered around the fire in the woods.

wood burners on the farm.
