The West Chester Barn
2023–Present
Thirteen years into our Peg and Awl journey, and one year after officially beginning our homeschool adventure with Søren and Silas, we decided to move out of Philadelphia in search of a new home amongst the trees. We quickly stumbled upon the patch of land that we’ve come to call The Five Acre Wood– consisting of a ton of invasive growth, some lawn, woods, ponds, animals, two creeks, our house (built in the late 1700s or early 1800s), a spring house and – just across the road – a dilapidated barn. Truly, our timing was perfect.

We renovated the barn and moved Peg and Awl. Read on!
