This blog is dedicated to sharing the concept that our hands are essential to learning- that we engage the world and its wonders, sensing and creating primarily through the agency of our hands. We abandon our children to education in boredom and intellectual escapism by failing to engage their hands in learning and making.

This afternoon my wife and I and friends went to an open house, or more appropriately an "open farm" at Foundation Farm a local organic farm operated by Patrice and Karen Gros of Eureka Springs. It seemed half the town was there, celebrating the harvest and the growing role of wholesome agriculture in our small community. It was a beautiful afternoon, lively entertainment, children playing in hay bales, and every thing one would wish from delightful country life. I hope many of my readers shared in equal blessings this day.
