In 1943 my parents bought a farmhouse built in 1806. Ownership eventually passed to their three children. After many years of neglect (long and complicated tale), we have sold 80 of the original 86 acres to the State of New Jersey, which has guaranteed its preservation as wilderness forever. Beginning with money received from Green Acres Program, I am hoping to do my small bit to stimulate the distressed national economy as I resuscitate the house. This is my attempt to record that effort.
