Women Build Our Own Houses Workshop Labor Day Week 2007 Outland, New Mexico Any woman can built— and I mean that literally. We simply need self-confidence. Naturally, a few basic tools and a little experience help too. This Workshop does it all. I have built houses on Lesbian Lands in several states. My then-partner and I built our fist home because it was the only way we could afford to have one— all either one of us had ever built before was a bookshelf. Smile, true story. I will facilitate this incredible10-day Workshop at Outland the days around Labor Day Weekend 2007. Sliding Scale. Small group. Great meals. Focus is a blend of experiences that draw us into our biggest Selves— where we find self-confidence and confidence in Self. The goal is for each woman to return home confident and able to start building a small house. Besides hands-on construction experience, there is equal focus on Creativity, Connection, Healing and a range of other expanding activities. That Big Self again. Smile. I sure hope you can Join us for the Fun! And, it will indeed be a fantastic week!

SuBAMUH WORKSHOP FOR WOMEN LANDOWNERS Join us on Earth Day weekend for a unique opportunity to learn about owning and managing land, a practical, hands-on workshop for the non-traditional landowner. You don't need to own land to attend this one day event. All you need is an interest in being a good steward of your little patch of ground. This free workshop is going to be held Saturday, April 21st by Terence Hanley, Service Forester, Ohio Division of Forestry. Terence has been working with the womyn at SuBAMUH Womyn's Land Trust this past year helping them with their management program. If you own land, are thinking of purchasing or simply enjoy walking in the woods this workshop will have something for you. Michelle Miller |
