We welcome you to come live and work with us in our cozy one-room cabin in the woods of Pax, WV. The cabin boasts solar panels that provide our electricity, a woodstove that burns salvaged wood for heat, and a spring where we can collect drinking water. Because our home sits right on a pond and is surrounded by streams, we hear the con-stant tinkling of flowing water.
