Shewolf

Additional testimonies about Shewolf:
Diana: I never met Shewolf but I was touched that sometime around 2010-2012. I called her and she called me back! She invited me to come visit the Melrose community. She was hoping wimmin would move there and buy the very inexpensive houses available there. I'm sorry now I never made the trip down to meet her.
Edith: Feather’s Bed and Breakfast was in the first directory.
mariKo: I remember seeing the slide show up in a barn in Oregon. Was on a woman’s 500 acre place and she came with the casita. She explained thoroughly how she came to choose that brand and I always think of her when I see one on the road.
Ardy: G’day, dear ones from Melbourne Australia! I used her guide and visited lesbian Lsnds in the U.S., Europe.Japan. Now I now lesbians here who’ve been active on land in Australia. I greet and love you and honour Shewolf.
Charlotte: I first met Shewolf at Golden Threads in Provincetown. she gave her slide show and some of the women were expecting much more elegant places
Charlotte: Many of us were on an email list with her and she tried to get us all to move to Melrose
Elana Santana: I sent away for the shewolf directory in 2007, I was 21, she is the reason I found the landdykes in Oregon and now they are my chosen family, her directory changed my life, thank you SheWolf!
