Ingleside: a beautiful, homespun space where seeds were produced and sold; newsletters, catalogues, and packets were letterpressed; neighbors and customers stopped in for visits and purchases; food was procured from just outside the kitchen window; children scamped, scrimped, and worked; and a family lived a life that by today's standards is awe inspiring - the stuff of folk tales and fables.
